Colon vs Penarol Prediction
Colon are favorites in the game and home advantage also gives them an edge. However, their recent poor run of form means that Penarol will go all out in search of victory.
The visitors have been defensively resolute in recent weeks and Colon's blunt attack means that goals are likely to come at a premium in the game. Although one side could nick a win, we are backing the spoils to be shared in a goalless draw.
Prediction: Colon 0-0 Penarol
