Match description

Peñarol is the clear favorite: they are 2nd, with 10 wins and 27 goals this season, while Cerro has only 3 wins and 10 goals. Form over the last 5 matches also favors the away side — Cerro has 1 win and 4 losses, scoring 2 and conceding 11, whereas Peñarol in their last 5 have 2 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses, scored 5 and conceded 4; on average Cerro collects 0.6 points per match in the last 5, Peñarol 1.4. In terms of chance quality Peñarol generates significantly more threat: on average 15.5 shots and 4.88 shots on target away with a 10% conversion and xG 1.66, versus 10.44 shots, 4.11 on target, 6% conversion and xG 1.31 for Cerro at home. Defensively the nominal numbers are similar (Cerro concedes 0.67 goals at home vs 0.63 for Peñarol away), but a higher share of clean sheets for the visitors (63% vs 33%) and a lower share of scoreless matches for the visitors (13% vs 33%) give Peñarol an edge in reliability. Considering better attacking efficiency (1.5 goals away vs 0.67 for the home side), higher xG and more chances, I predict a Peñarol win; probabilities estimated at ~70% for the visitors, 18% draw and 12% for the hosts.
