CA Cerro vs Penarol tips and predictions

CA Cerro can hold off Penarol

There's not much between CA Cerro and Penarol in the Primera Division. The hosts are in ninth place with 4 points, compared to their opponents who are in second place on 7 points.

There's not much up for grabs in the match winner odds and the short price for Penarol makes them a terrible bet. CA Cerro don't look likely to get the win but they might keep the visitors honest. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away with.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. In their last 5 matches CA Cerro have only conceded 0.6 goals and Penarol have conceded only 1 goal in their last 3 games.

In previous matches in this head-to-head 3 of the last 7 have finished on level terms.

Don't be disappointed if one of these sides tries to park the bus because of the favouritism for Penarol. In the Both Teams To Score market, the No option is the pick.

CA Cerro have drawn 9 of their last 19 matches on their own soil and they drew 1-1 with Defensor Sp. at home earlier this month. Not having much to go on the conclusion is that this also ends in parity.
