Match preview: Juventud vs Peñarol
Juventud and Peñarol will face off at Parque Artigas Municipal Stadium, in a fixture of the 8th round of the Primera Division. There have been no official meetings between these two sides in the last 3 years, with their last match ending in a 1-1 draw on 21 September 2019. In this upcoming match, the home advantage may play a significant role as Juventud exhibits notable differences in results when playing at home compared to away.
Team analysis: Juventud
The home side currently sits in 6th position with 8 points, having secured 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. In their penultimate match, they beat Wanderers 1-0 at home but suffered a 2-1 defeat away to Cerro in their last affair. Interestingly, Juventud have performed better away than at home, recording 7 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses on the road compared to 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses at home in their last 30 matches. In their last 10 home matches, Juventud has recorded 3 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses. Although their defence hasn’t been particularly solid, having conceded goals in 4 of their last 5 matches, their attack has been consistent, scoring at least once in each of the last 5 games in this competition. In 15 games, they managed to secure a lead in only 1 of the 9 matches in which they conceded first. Notably, 7 of the 20 goals they have conceded in their last 20 home matches came between the 76th and 90th minutes.
Currently, with 14 points, Juventud is one of the stronger teams in the competition and is eager to face Peñarol. The side has demonstrated significant attacking quality alongside a robust defence. To maintain their position near the top of the table, Juventud will need consistency and to keep up their winning momentum while effectively managing the match against Peñarol.
Team analysis: Peñarol
The visiting team is currently in 9th place with 6 points, having achieved 1 victory, 3 draws, and 1 loss. In their second-to-last match, they managed a draw away at River Plate (1-1) but were defeated at home by Racing (0-2) in their latest outing. This team has shown little dependence on the home factor, as they have maintained similar results both home and away, with their last 30 matches showing 8 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses when visiting – scoring a total of 25 goals and conceding 17. At home, they have achieved 8 wins, 5 draws, and 2 losses, scoring 24 and conceding just 7. In their last 10 matches across all competitions, Peñarol has won 5, drawn 2, and lost 3. However, defensive stability is not their strong suit, having conceded at least one goal in every one of their last 5 games, while their attack has managed to score in 4 of those 5 matches. Notably, Peñarol often gets on the scoresheet first, having opened the scoring in 13 of their last 15 games, managing to maintain the lead at half-time in 9 of those and closing out with the win in 8.
With only 6 points to their name, Peñarol has encountered significant challenges this season and must improve substantially to avoid further defeats. The team has displayed vulnerabilities in various aspects of their match, and the fixture against Juventud will present a considerable challenge. To have any chance of causing an upset, Peñarol needs to shore up their defence and be more decisive with their offensive maneuvers.
