Cerro Porteño Analysis

This is the first match in this edition of the competition for the home team, which finished the previous edition in 1st place. Interestingly, this is a team that has shown more positive results away than at home, recording 8 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses as visitors in their last 30 matches, scoring 24 goals and conceding 19, compared to 7 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses at home, scoring 18 goals and conceding 13. In their last game, they lost to Huracán in a club friendly (4-0). In the last 10 home games, Cerro Porteño has recorded 5 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses. Their defensive solidity has been one of their strong points, having only conceded goals in 3 of their last 10 matches, and their attack has been consistent, scoring in 7 of their last 10 games. In 15 matches, they have only managed 1 comeback in the 5 games where they conceded the first goal. In their last 20 home games across all competitions, there are 1 highlighted period: they conceded 7 of their 17 goals between the minutes (76’‑90′).

Cerro Porteño had a very positive campaign in last season’s Paraguayan football. After finishing the Apertura in second place, the team did not settle and adopted an even more aggressive stance in the Clausura. Amid dramatic context battles, they stood out throughout the journey and claimed the top spot. The title reinforced the mental and competitive strength of the squad. Now, in 2026, the stakes are high. There is no room for mistakes, especially in the tough debut against Libertad.

Libertad Analysis

This will be the first game in this edition of the competition for the visiting team, which finished the previous edition in 7th place. Interestingly, this team has proven stronger away than at home, as in their last 30 games they have recorded 5 wins, 7 draws, and 3 losses as visitors, compared to 3 wins, 7 draws, and 5 losses at home. The team comes into this match after a home victory against General Caballero JLM (2-0). In the last 10 away games across all competitions, Libertad has won 3, drawn 3, and lost 4. Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, as they have conceded goals in 8 of their last 10 games, but their attack has been consistently scoring, having found the back of the net in 7 of their last 10 games. This is a team that rarely scores first and has only managed to open the scoring in 3 of their last 15 matches, never going into halftime ahead. In 15 games, they have only achieved 2 comebacks in the 10 games where they conceded the first goal.

Libertad’s level declined throughout 2025 after a dominant Apertura, finishing in first place. As the season progressed, the team experienced fluctuations and couldn’t maintain the same momentum in the Clausura. The drop in performance has provided important lessons. Now, in a new journey, the goal is to reach even more impressive numbers. The demand for decision-making rises in big games. Away from home, against the powerful Cerro Porteño, Libertad knows that every detail will be crucial.
