Fenix vs Penarol Prediction: Can the home team secure a win?

Fenix and Penarol will face against one another at Parque Capurro Stadium as part of a round 15 matchup in the Uruguay Primera Division Apertura. Fenix will hope to extend their winning ways to four on their home soil, while Penarol will aim to extend their unbeaten streak to nine by securing a win on the road. Bet according to the information provided below.

Fenix extended their winning ways to three in their match against Maldonado, picking a 1-0 away win during their last five encounters. Before the match, they won two consecutive matches against Progreso and Nacional. However, they suffered defeats against Defensor Sporting and Racing Montevideo. During these matches, they have scored six goals while conceding. Fenix have gained 13 points in 14 matches, positioning them in 14th place in the league table.

Penarol extended their unbeaten streak to eight in their last timeout against Rosario Central in the South America Copa Libertadores group stage. Before the match, they won against Progreso, Defensor Sporting, Wanderers, Caracas, Liverpool Montevideo, and Atletico-MG in two matches. During their matches, they have scored sixteen goals while conceding four. Penarol have gained 38 points in 14 matches, positioning them in 1st place in the league table at the promotion Primera Division Play-Offs.

During their last five encounters, Fenix and Penarol won in two matches, respectively, while both teams tied in one match. All these matches were recorded in scoring below three goals.

Given that these two teams were recorded in scoring in their previous matchup before coming into this match, I expect both teams to build on their scoring ability here. Therefore, I will bet on both teams to find the net while scoring more than two goals can be expected. Even though I expect both teams to score here, we can still expect the visiting team to secure a win since they will hope to maintain their unbeaten streak of eight here.
