Libertad - Guarani

Paraguay Primera Division, Clausura

Things couldn't get any better for Libertad. They are on the first place in the league, won 5 out of 6 games, last week they trashed Trinidense 7-0, and their game-plan works perfect. Cunning attack, solid defense, good creativity. And unless they get complacent, they have a serious shot at the title, as both Cerro and Guarani look a bit off pace, not even worth mentioning Nacional and Olimpia. Libertad has one of the best squads in Paraguay, and has no injury or suspension problems for tonight's match, so they will pretty much repeat the same squad that score 7 goals last weekend. The only change in the team will see Vladimir Marin take the field in place of Jorge Gonzalez. And I don't expect complacency to be a problem here, as this is a derby, and a win here is very important for the standings.

For Guarani, things are also looking pretty good, being 3rd in the table, 4 points behind the leaders. But with their early participation in the Copa Sudamericana began the problems, and with a decisive match next week in Uruguay, they decided to give priority to the Internationl game, therefore they will rest some regulars for tonight. To be precise, it is expected that at least 8 regulars will left behind, in order to keep them fresh for the clash with River. Surely this must be a huge blow for them, making Libertad's victory pretty sure, as I doubt Guarani's reserves can rise to the Gumarelo standards. GL!
