With a 2-0 win against Defensor Sporting, Penarol extended their unbeaten streak to five during their last five games. Before the game, they had won three consecutive matches against Atletico-MG, Wanderers, and Caracas while they tied against Liverpool Montevideo. During these matches, they have scored eight goals while conceding two. Penarol are currently in 1st place in the league table, having gained 35 points in 13 matches this season, positioning them in the promotion Primera Division Playoffs.

Progreso extended their winless streak to three during their last five matches against Fenix in the match that ended in a 0-1 loss. Before the match, they lost in two matches against Defensor Sporting and Wanderers, while they won against Liverpool Montevideo and they tied against River Plate. During these matches, they have scored five goals while conceding ten. Progreso have gained 24 points in 13 matches positioning them in 4th place in the league table.

Based on their last five matches, Penarol won in three matches, while Progreso have failed to win any, and both teams tied in two matches. Both teams were recorded in scoring against one another in one match, and scoring more than two goals were recorded.

I expect the home team to enter this match with all seriousness of defensive performance, and I also expect their attacking performance to improve here, considering that the home team haven’t suffered a defeat in their last five matches. Therefore, I expect them to secure a win without conceding. Furthermore, we can expect a high-scoring outcome since the visiting team have displayed a weak performance lately.
