Trinidense host Ameliano at the Martín Torres stadium in the Santísima Trinidad neighbourhood of Asunción on Sunday, with the match kicking off at 19:30 as part of round 19 of the Clausura 2026 championship.
Home advantage
Trinidense come into the game with the better campaign and are favourites, helped by playing at home. They have won nine, drawn four and lost five matches so far this season.
Ameliano have had a more uneven run and sit in the lower half of the table. Their record reads four wins, seven draws and seven defeats, and they will need to find more consistency if they want to climb.
Battle for continental places
Trinidense are fighting for a place in the Copa Libertadores, with qualification decided by accumulated points. Finishing lower down would still mean a spot in the Copa Sudamericana, which remains an important prize.
Ameliano’s target is a berth in the Sudamericana, the second-tier club competition in South America. To get there, they must make some adjustments to improve their current form.
Head-to-head
Ameliano have the upper hand in recent meetings, having beaten Trinidense 2-1 in the Apertura and 3-0 in the Clausura so far this cycle. An earlier meeting between the two sides finished 1-1.
With both teams knowing what they want from the game and keen to finish the season as high as possible, this Sunday evening fixture promises to be an intriguing way to close the round.
