Montevideo City Torque
- Montevideo City Torque are unbeaten at home in Copa Sudamericana 2026, winning both matches (W2).
- Montevideo City Torque have been the best performing side in Copa Sudamericana Group F so far, collecting nine points from their opening four games to top the standings, while Deportivo Riestra are third with four.
- The Uruguayans have been solid on home turf since the appointment of Marcelo Mendez as head coach in July 2025, where his well-drilled, possession-based 4-2-3-1 style has been heavily influenced by the ownership of the City Football Group.
- Torque’s form is W3, D1 and L1 in their last five matches across all competitions and we think they are in good enough shape to get the job done here.
Deportivo Riestra
- Deportivo Riestra has failed to score or win in their only Copa Sudamericana away match this year.
- Guillermo Duro’s men are a direct and high-tempo team that have made their reputation by ceding possession and catching opponents on counterattacks.
- Juan Cruz Randazzo is the Argentinean club’s main man up front with two goals in four appearances in the Copa Sudamericana and two in their last four in all competitions.

Betting Insights
- The hosts are a very short price for Tuesday’s game at 2.03 and while that is fair enough based on the current form and quality of both clubs, we will pass on that opportunity.
- The odds for BTTS NO also look very tempting here at 1.78 given that Riestra have yet to score on the road in the competition while Torque average just 1.00 goal per home game in this season’s competition.
- An under 2.5 goals also looks appealing at 1.66.
Prediction
We are recommending a Torque win with BTTS NO in what should be a cagey, tactical chess match in Group F and an under 2.5 goals also looks appealing at 1.66 .
