APWin Prediction

1st Half Over 0.5 Goals

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

Looking at the current form of both teams, betting the 'no' on the Both Teams to Score market seems like the smart way to go.

It's hard to see both teams getting goals in this match. The two defences have been quite solid, while the offences have had a hard time in front of goal. With that combination, this match could very well be a low-scoring affair with one or none of the teams finding the back of the net.

👉 Our prediction is: Peñarol win or draw

We feel strongly about Peñarol's chances of leaving with a point, or maybe even more. That is why our betting tip is Peñarol to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

Peñarol has shown considerable courage and determination in their recent away performances, while Cerro's form has not been the most convincing. So while an away win might be too much to ask for, Peñarol is more than capable of collecting a point in this match.
