Progreso

Capitalizing on their home-field advantage in this game, the team will aim to secure as many points as possible at the outset of the championship. Guided by coach Carlos Alberto Canobbio Bentaberry, the team will enter the field with the sole objective of achieving victory. With most of the game spent in attack, there is a good chance of a higher than usual number of corner kicks, a market that should not be overlooked.

Current leaderboard

Progreso comes to this round 2 of this local league Clausura tournament holding the 15 position in the table, with 1 points collected. Previously, in the Apertura phase, the team finished the qualification round occupying the 5 place.

This will be the second game this season in which the Progreso team will play at home. There was a 0-0 draw against Miramar Misiones in the first one.

The average shooting on goal for Progreso in the league is not the best. There are only 4.47 per game. This turns out to be another good indication that the team does not usually score many goals or give much work to the opposing goalkeepers.

Cerro

Even as a visitor in the duel, Cerro will try to get a tie in the match, avoiding a significant point gap at the beginning of the tournament. With this goal in mind, it is expected that Luis Maciel's team will act in a more defensive manner, which can cause a low number of goals conceded or even a high number of cards in the match.

As we are at the beginning of the competition, there is still little data to be studied, that allows suggestions for good bets. However, it is important to note that, usually, in the first games of a tournament, the matches have goals in the first half. The teams are still getting familiar, and there is no interest in maintaining any specific result due to the leaderboard.

Corners market betting suggestions
