Cerro Form

Cerro started the brand new Uruguayan Primera Division in a very poor fashion, grabbing only five points from the opening six rounds.

Their only victory so far was earned on the road against Boston River (3-0) in early February. They have failed to secure one single win since then.

Cerro lost two of their last three games to River Plate (2-3) and Danubio (0-1) while going 2-2 against Nacional.

Luis Nunez’s side has scored seven goals in their last five league games. Mathias Abero and Lucas Rodriguez bagged two goals each.

Cerro Team News

Midfielder Jose Tancredi (ligament injury) and forward Nicolas Gonzalez (cruciate ligament rupture) are going to miss this match.

Fenix Form

Team Atletico Fenix Montevideo are doing even worse than the hosts, sitting at the bottom of the standings with one win, one draw, and four defeats.

Fenix started a new campaign started with a 3-1 win at Defensor Sporting, which was the biggest upset of the first round.

The follow-up results were a disaster, losing to Liverpool (1-3), Plaza Colonia (1-3), and Racing last weekend (0-1).

Interestingly, none of the six strikers who made appearances so far scored one single goal.
