Defensor Sporting Progreso betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The moment of Defensor is not good at all in the season, since the team is already eliminated in the Copa Libertadores and occupies the last position of its group in the national championship, so it is necessary to change its posture in the field from now on. The away team managed to conquer a good result in the last round and now hopes to take advantage of its opponent's bad moment to add the three points away from home. This should be a very busy duel, as both teams need to seek a good result to continue in pursuit of their goals within the competition, so we will bet that more than 2.5 goals will occur until the end of this duel.

The home team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with no points won yet. In their debut, they lost in a home match against Atenas, by (0‑2). In the second round, they lost in an away match against River Plate, by (1‑0). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses at their stadium.

For the league, Defensor Sporting won 22 points out of 27 possible points, after 7 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 9 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 8 of the last 9 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 6 of their 16 matches for this competition, but have been able to turn the score around in 2.

The two defeats it has suffered so far have not yet been well digested by Defensor and now there is the need to run after good results. The locals should fall on top of the opponent, because today they need to add the three points and do not think about missing in this round. Obviously if it has a good performance, being able to neutralize the opponent's attacks moves and has efficient attack the team can achieve a favorable score. For this match coach Eduardo Acevedo should take to the field what is best available.

Confirmed Lineup: Gastón Rodríguez, Mathías Suárez, Gonzalo Maulella, Nicolás Correa, Joaquín Piquerez, Ernesto Goñi, Claudio Rivero, Carlos Protesoni, Matías Cabrera, Facundo Castro, Germán Rivero.
Coach: I. Ithurralde Sáez.

Analysis Progreso

The away team is currently in the 3rd position of the league, with 3 points won. In their debut they won in an away match against Atenas, by (0‑6). In the second round, they won in a home match against Peñarol, by (4‑3). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 17 conceded. In the last 7 away league matches Progreso has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 21 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (3 out of 7 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 14 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The only game of Progreso so far in the current competition was against the traditional Peñarol and the team still managed to show its strength and win, and hopes to have regularity to make a good campaign. Today it will face a complicated team again, but now away from home and this indicates a greater difficulty, which also requires more care. The team will need to be very cautious during the ninety minutes, and if it can present a quality football it can at least conquer a draw. For this match coach Marcelo Méndez should take to the field what is best available.

Confirmed Lineup: Carlos Leandro Techera Sánchez, Alex Silva Quiroga, Gonzalo Castillo, Steve Makuka, Mauricio Loffreda Zinula, D. Asconeguy, Ignacio Lemmo, Gonzalo Montes, Rodrigo Viega, Gastón Colmán, Alexander Rosso Génova.
Coach: C. Canobbio Bentaberry.
