vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

The group stage of the Copa de la Division Profesional does not yet give a useful table for Gualberto Villarroel SJ and Independiente Petrolero, so recent matches and head to head meetings matter more. Gualberto Villarroel SJ come off a difficult run: a 2-4 away defeat to Bolívar in the most recent round, before that a 0-3 defeat to Nacional Potosí, further back a 1-5 away defeat to Blooming, before that a 0-3 away defeat to Aurora and, in the earliest match of the sequence, another 0-1 defeat to Bolívar. Independiente Petrolero also arrive on a tough spell: a 1-3 away defeat to Universitario de Vinto in the most recent round, before that a 1-1 away draw with Bolívar, further back a 0-4 home defeat to that same Bolívar, before that a 0-3 away defeat to Real Tomayapo and, in the earliest match, the one positive result, a 3-1 win over Guabirá. In the head to head record, the most recent meeting, played in August on the reverse fixture, saw Independiente Petrolero win 1-0; before that Gualberto Villarroel SJ had won 2-1, and further back two more wins for Gualberto Villarroel SJ, 0-2 and 0-1, both away fixtures on the reverse ground, plus a 2-2 draw in the earliest meeting. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
