FC Metropolitanos host Puerto Cabello for Round 17 of the Venezuelan first division. The hosts are in first place, while Cabello are second from the bottom. The home side are coming into this fixture on the back of three consecutive wins, having scored six and conceded two. They always find a way to score, having blanked just once in their last eight games. When it comes to their home form however, it is not nearly as impressive for a team chasing the championship. Specifically, they have only won once in their last five games, conceding in all of them. Despite also competing at the Copa Sudamericana, they have managed to perform well in the local league, where they are unbeaten in their last nine league games.

Puerto Cabello are in contrasting fortunes when it comes to their league performance. They have not won in their last six games with no clean sheets in nine of their ten. With regards to their away form, it is similarly weak with the team having only one win in their last nine games, while they will need to improve on their defensive duties, having conceded in all of their last thirteen matches away from home. They have also lost in both of the games they have played against Metropolitanos in 2022, albeit one of them was after penalties.
