Guaraní vs Cerro Porteño: match statistics
Guaraní displays impressive home form with 100% efficiency (2 wins in 2 matches), scoring an average of 3.5 goals per match and maintaining a +6 goal difference. The host team dominates in home matches, confirmed by a high average possession (52%) and shot efficiency (23%). Cerro Porteño indeed has a solid away record (67% wins), however, their average xG (1.08) and number of shots on target (3.33) are significantly lower than Guaraní's. The recent form of both teams is balanced, but the home advantage and the significantly better offense of the hosts (xG 1.82 vs 1.08) speak in favor of a Guaraní victory. The risk of a draw exists due to the solid defense of the guests (67% clean sheets away), but the offensive power of the hosts should prevail.
