The Copa Paraguay returns to a compact setting as 24 de Setiembre host Libertad at the Club 24 de Setiembre de Valle Pucu on 28/08/2025. This is a classic David-versus-Goliath backdrop on paper: a small venue with a 2,500 capacity will create an intimate, intense atmosphere that often favours the underdog who knows every patch of the pitch. 24 de Setiembre arrive buoyant from a 4-0 victory in the previous round of this competition, while Libertad carry mixed league form into this cup fixture, including a heavy 0-4 reverse to Guaraní just days before.
Formlines tell an intriguing story. 24 de Setiembre’s last ten results read like a rollercoaster — wins punctuated by losses — but their Copa pedigree here is clear: a convincing 4-0 triumph in their last cup appearance suggests they can deliver on the day. At home the numbers available show a tidy defensive outcome in that small sample: goals scored at home were limited to four with zero conceded and a clean sheet recorded. Libertad, by contrast, have been grinding through a sequence with more draws than decisive results. Several recent matches ended 0-0 or 1-1, pointing to a team that can be difficult to break down yet also vulnerable to a sudden collapse, as the 0-4 defeat demonstrates.
The clash of styles makes this cup tie intriguing: a home side with momentum and confidence in front of modest crowds versus an away giant used to managing matches and steady results. Liberty’s recent string of low-scoring draws suggests they prioritize structure and compactness, but their defensive fragility was brutally exposed in the loss to Guaraní.
Expect a tactical encounter where intensity and match management will matter more than open, free-flowing football. The host will seek to use the pitch familiarity and energetic support to unsettle Libertad early, while Libertad will lean on their experience to control phases of the game and prevent the tie from becoming a shootout. Given the limited sample for some statistics and the recent clean-sheet signs at home for 24 de Setiembre, the narrative favors a tight, low-scoring affair rather than a goal-laden thriller.
Prediction: A close, cautious game with few clear chances — likely to finish tight on the scoreboard.
Betting suggestion: Goal market — Under 2.5 goals. The recent pattern of 0-0/1-1 results for Libertad combined with 24 de Setiembre’s compact home defensive sample and the small, intense venue point to a low-scoring cup tie. Stake with moderation.
