Penarol have not been beaten yet in the Uruguay’s Primera Division recording six triumphs and seven draws in 13 matchday. The side occupies the third position in the standings with 25 points gained. In the Copa Libertadores the situation is not so promising for the Uruguayans: the team picked up only three points with 8-13 goal difference in four encounters and occupies the last fourth place in the Group 5. This season Penarol participated in eight clashes on the road resulting in two wins, four draws and two defeats.
In the first lap Penarol broke the Argentines with 2:1 scoreline in front of their fans. In the forthcoming battle Atletico Tucuman are the favourite as in the South America the home-field advantage still plays an important role. Thus, "Atleti" are treated as the favourites and the team's home results just prove this status.
Prediction for the match: Penarol to win.
