Liverpool - Cerro

Uruguay Primera Division, Clausura

After a perfect start of the season, Liverpool finally lost a match last week, when they were beaten at Defensor Sporting 2-4. Despite this loss, they are still sitting on the top of the standings in this Clausura, so their situation is still better than anyone expected, and last week's loss can't be condemnable, as Defensor are definitely one of the top teams in the league. So today it will be the moment of truth for Liverpool... if they win, they will prove to everyone that indeed they are title challengers. If they lose, they will also lose all credibility. Allthough besides Defensor they haven't played any of the better teams, their results still can't be disconsidered, and Cerro is pretty much at the same level as the rest of the teams that Liverpool faced so far. Losing their last 2 away games certainly won't give Cerro too much hope for today, especially since they conceded 3 goals from both Nacional and Wanderers. And, same as Liverpool, their only wins came against some of the weakest teams in the league, Cerrito and Rentistas, so they still need to prove they can take on the big teams. I have faith in Liverpool, as I consider them to be quite a good team, and hopefully, they'll prove that last week's result was nothing more than a stumble. GL!
