Resistencia vs Cerro PortenoPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Resistencia come into this Copa Paraguay round in decent form: their last match was a 0-0 away draw against SOL DE America, following a 1-0 win over Deportivo Capiata, a 1-1 away draw with Independiente F.b.c. and two wins, 3-1 over Tacuary and 1-0 away at Atlético Tembetary. Cerro Porteno have had a tougher run, with their last defeat a 1-2 loss at Olimpia, preceded by a 0-1 loss to Palmeiras, a 1-0 win over Club Sp. San Lorenzo, a 1-1 away draw with the same Palmeiras and a 0-1 away defeat to Sportivo Ameliano. The head-to-head record, all from 2022 and 2023, clearly favours Cerro Porteno, who won four of the last five meetings, including a 4-1 win in October 2023. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off.
