Guarani - Sol de America

Paraguay Primera Division, Clausura

Guarani left Copa Sudamericana last week, which means they should be able to focus solely on the championship from now on, where they are doing a great job so far. They are league leaders for the moment, with 6 games won from 8 played, plus a draw, and with a win today, they can increase their lead at the top of the table, as neither Cerro Porteno nor Olimpia managed to win yesterday. And we can't say their top position is a lucky break due to an easy schedule, as they have played all the giants in the league: they won against Cerro Porteno, Nacional and Olimpia, all of them away from home, and also drew with Libertad also as visitors. That must definitely mean they are up to serious business. For today, all the players are in the squad, and I don't see any reason why they won't field the best possible line-up. Meanwhile, after a very good Apertura season (finished 4th), Sol have apparently lost the spark, as they have only managed 2 wins in 8 matches played in Clausura. They did manage to beat Cerro Porteno away, but when you fail to win at home against teams like Rubio Nu, Sportivo Luqueno or Independiente, there must definitely be something wrong. Sol won't make a repeat of their last tournament's performance, and I really expect them to lose today. Nice odds, as the fair ones should have been around 1.50 for the home win. GL!

Guarani (-0.5 AH) @ 1.84, 4/10
Result: 3-2, WON
