Cerro Porteno to Win
Although Olimpia had a very successful Copa Libertadores campaign so far since they managed to reach group stages by eliminating Fluminense after penalties in the last round of qualifiers, we expect Cerro Porteno to win the game.
After all, Cerro Porteno is in better form at the moment since they’ve won seven of their eight games at the start of their domestic league.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
Three of the previous five h2h meetings between Olimpia and Cerro Porteno have gone under 2.5 total goals and we expect that to happen once again in their next game.
That being said, both teams averaged over 2.50 goals per game so far in the Venezuelan league, but that won’t mean much in their Copa Libertadores duel since those games tend to have fewer goals.
Both Teams to Score – No
We saw both teams score in just one of the last five head-to-head meetings between Olimpia and Cerro Porteno, so we don’t expect that to happen now either.
After all, both teams scored in just 25% of all Cerro Porteno matches in the Paraguayan league this season, while the same is true for 50% of all Olimpia games in the league so far.
Olimpia vs Cerro Porteno preview: The Paraguayan derby in Copa Libertadores
Olimpia
The team from Asuncion has fourteen points from the first eight matches in Paraguayan Apertura, which is enough to put them in the fourth place in the standings. In the last six games in the league, Olimpia has three wins, one draw and two losses. Despite this, the team’s fans can be pleased with the season so far since Olimpia managed to get to the Copa Libertadores group stages through qualifiers.
Cerro Porteno
The reigning champions of Paraguayan Clausura are in great form at the moment since they have seven wins and one loss in the first eight games of Paraguayan Apertura. However, they are not first in the league since Libertad has seven wins and a draw. In addition to this, the only loss so far this season Cerro Porteno suffered from their upcoming opponent in Copa Libertadores, Olimpia Asuncion.
