Boston River vs Peñarol: Prediction, Lineups & Where to Watch Uruguay Liga AUF Clausura

Boston River vs Peñarol is set for an exciting clash in the Uruguay Liga AUF Clausura on Saturday, August 16, 2025, at Estadio Centenario, Montevideo. Kick-off is at 4:30 AM IST, and fans can watch it live on GOLTV Play.

Both sides come into this Round 3 encounter with unbeaten starts, but the storylines are very different.

Boston River vs Peñarol Prediction

Boston River have opened their Clausura campaign with a 4–0 victory over Defensor Sporting and a 1–1 draw with Montevideo City Torque. Solid at the back and dangerous going forward, they’ve scored five and conceded just once in two games.

Peñarol, meanwhile, have been ruthless, claiming back-to-back wins over Progreso (2–1) and Nacional (3–0), followed by a 1–0 win in the Copa Uruguay. They’ve kept three clean sheets in their last five matches and are looking sharp on both ends of the pitch.

History, though, leans heavily towards Peñarol — unbeaten in their last six against Boston River with four wins and two draws.

Despite ELO ratings showing both sides evenly matched (82 each), Peñarol’s experience and recent form make them slight favourites. Our prediction: a tight game, with Peñarol edging it 2–1.
