Match preview: Olimpia vs Nacional
Olimpia and Nacional meet at the Manuel Ferreira Stadium, in a match for the 10th round of the Professional Division. The historical encounters at this venue favour the visiting team; in the last 10 matches, they have won 5, drawn 4, and lost 1. However, in their last match at this stadium, on 24-11-2024, it ended in a 1-1 draw. The goals came from Rodney Networks (68′) for Olimpia and Diego Duarte (13′) for Nacional. The home advantage may play a critical role in this encounter, particularly as Nacional has shown inconsistent performances both at home and away.
Team analysis: Olimpia
After securing 5 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, the home team currently sits in 2nd place with 17 points. In their last match, they suffered a defeat against Libertad (2-1), following a home win against Mayo 2 (2-1). This team has maintained solid performance even when playing away, recording 7 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses over the last 30 games as visitors; compared to 11 wins, 3 draws, and just 1 loss at home. In the league, Olimpia has amassed 12 out of 15 possible points from their last 5 home games.
In this competition, they have claimed victory in their last 4 home matches. Though defensive solidity has been a concern, conceding goals in 7 of their last 9 matches, their attack remains effective, scoring in 8 of those 9 games. In the 9 matches played, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and only managed to turn the tables once.
Olimpia has emerged as one of the few teams capable of challenging Libertad at the top of the table. They are determined to avoid any slump in performance during this critical phase. The recent loss should serve as a wake-up call, prompting the team to strive for immediate recovery in this home fixture against Nacional, who currently have the worst record in the Apertura.
Team analysis: Nacional
The away team currently occupies 12th position, having earned 4 points from 1 win, 2 draws, and 6 losses. In their penultimate match, they were beaten by Sportivo Luqueño (2-1). In their last match, they managed a home draw against Trinidense Sportivo (1-1). Nacional proves to be a stronger side at home; in their last 30 games as visitors, they recorded only 1 victory, with 5 draws and 9 defeats, while at home, they boast 7 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses. They have only managed to secure 1 point from 5 games in the championship.
In this league, they are currently on a dismal run of 4 consecutive losses as visitors and have not won any of their last 5 away fixtures. Their defensive capabilities have been inadequate, allowing goals in 7 of their last 9 games, indicating a lack of strength in defence. In 9 matches, they have never turned around the score in any of the 5 games where they conceded first.
The recent draw at home highlights the inconsistency that Nacional has displayed during this season. In the Apertura, they have the poorest record and struggle to impose themselves on their opponents. Having suffered six defeats in the competition, a more effective performance will be crucial if they wish to surprise Olimpia, who are competing for the top position.
