Contents
Bolivar to Win
While Cerro Porteno still has a theoretical chance for next stage, they would have to win both of their remaining matches and hope for Bolivar to lose in the last round as well, in addition to beating them by a big margin since they lost 4-0 to them in the first leg.
That isn't realistic really, so Cerro Porteno will likely fight with Barcelona for a spot in Copa Sudamericana. In fact, Bolivar has been quite dominant in Copa Libertadores so far and we expect that to continue in this game, so our first Bolivar vs Cerro Porteno prediction is for the home team to win the match.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
As we said already, we saw four goals in the first duel between these two teams in the group and that's one of the reasons why our second Bolivar vs Cerro Porteno prediction is over 2.5 total goals.
In addition to this, Bolivar went over 2.5 total goals in three of their four Copa Libertadores matches so far, while the same thing happened in all four Cerro Porteno games in the group stages.

Bolivar – Cerro Porteno Preview: News, Recent Form, and Potential Lineups
You can read all the latest news on both teams here, including the most probable Bolivar vs Cerro Porteno lineups:
Bolivar
At the moment, Bolivar is fifth in Bolivian Apertura and they have struggled this season in their domestic championship. However, it has been a different story in Copa Libertadores so far, where Bolivar has nine points from four games and they are basically already in the next phase, although they are fighting for the top spot with Palmeiras, who also has three wins from four rounds.
When it comes to team news, Diego Bejarano will miss this match with an injury.
Bolivar Predicted Lineups:
Lampe – Sagredo, Bentaberry, Ferreyra – Chavaz, Villamil, Justiniano, Fernandez – Hervias, Fernandez, Uzeda
Cerro Porteno
While Cerro Porteno is currently second in Paraguayan Apertura, they are ten points behind Libertad at the top, so they won't be winning the title in their domestic league this season. Meanwhile, the team only has three points from the first four matches in Copa Libertadores group stages and their chances of getting to the next stage are minimal, but they could end up third and secure a place in Copa Sudamericana Top 16 phase.
Meanwhile, the team will be without Gabriel Baez since he is suspended after being sent off in the last round.
Cerro Porteno Predicted Lineups:
Jean – Espinola, Alvarez, Da Motta, Rivas – Galeano, Viera, Lucena, Carrizo – Morales, Churin
Starting Lineups
Teams often release their starting lineups an hour ahead of the kickoff.

Player to Watch: Ronnie Fernandez
Since we expect Bolivar to win this match, our player to watch is their best scorer this season and one of their most consistent performers, Ronnie Fernandez.
The experienced Chilean forward has eleven goals in the domestic championship this season, but he also has two goals and one assist in Copa Libertadores, so Cerro Porteno will have to keep a close eye on him in their duel.
