Draw

Cerrito and Defensor Sporting come on the back of defeats in the opening Torneo Intermedio match. The signs do not look good for the two teams, who finished in the bottom half of the Apertura campaign. Cerrito only had two victories from the 15 Apertura games and they have not beaten Defensor Sporting in more than a decade. At the same time, it is tough to back Defensor Sporting when they are on the way games.

This match is likely to end up with less than 2.5 goals based on the recent form of the two teams.

Both teams to score – yes

There have been less than 2.5 goals contribution from Cerrito and Defensor Sporting over the last few weeks. Both have struggled in front of goal but they have a defence that is prone to shipping goals. Cerrito have just conceded three against River Plate in the recent match.
