Betting Insights

• Both teams are unlikely to score here - that’s priced at 1.67.
• A Torque win is priced at 2.08 and looks the way to go for the main bet on this Liga AUF Uruguaya - Apertura clash.
• Both sides are a little off the pace for the Apertura with Torque 9th on 15 points from 11 matches and Cerro 14th on nine points from as many games.

Prediction

• Torque’s possession-based, high-tempo 4-3-3 system sets them apart from Cerro’s narrow, low-block counter-attacking approach in what is likely to be a close and tactical affair on Sunday.
• The visitors are more comfortable on the ball, more expansive and create more width, while Cerro are a side that sets up to be a pain in the neck and hit on the break.
• Torque have the attacking edge and look the more likely winners if Salomon Rodriguez is on his game.
