2 de Mayo enters the contest with a perfect 4-0-0 record in the domestic cup competition. Club Guarani is 2-0-0. The home side holds a slight edge in recent form, having defeated CA Tembetary 2-0 in its last outing on Oct. 21. Club Guarani is looking to rebound from a 3-1 loss to Guairena on Oct. 4.

Across all competitions this season, Club Guarani holds an 18-20-14 record, while 2 de Mayo sits at 8-6-12. Despite Guarani’s overall advantage in wins, 2 de Mayo’s focused cup form and home-field advantage set the stage for a tight contest.
