Bolívar form and stats

Bolívar have performed here at Estadio Hernando Siles this season with 5 wins from 7 Liga De Futbol Prof matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 1 game and lost 1.

Bolívar's previous fixture was a Copa Libertadores game also played at their home, ending 2-0 versus Cerro Porteno. The home team are looking to repeat that performance. Fernández, a striker, was the top player for the team in that game, collecting a rating of 7.6 (out of 10). Fernández hit the woodwork once and hit three key passes.

A 0-0 draw away in the Liga De Futbol Prof before that, with Real Tomayapo the opponent.

There will be little rest for Bolívar after this match as they are travelling to Palmeiras for a Copa Libertadores game in only four days.

Goals are plentiful at Estadio Hernando Siles in the league this season as Bolívar has scored 18 goals here in 7 home games. From these home matches, Bolívar have conceded only 6 goals.

Santa Cruz form and stats

Santa Cruz have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Liga De Futbol Prof, after 1-2-4 (7 played). Santa Cruz has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Santa Cruz are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the fixture against Independiente Petrolero (placed 12th).

A 0-1 defeat away at Universitario de Vinto before that.

With the hosting team stated as having a victory probability of around 80% by the bookmakers, any positive result for the visiting team would be a small shock. Examining earlier matches with similar odds and Santa playing away, we found 7 results. The numbers from these were 1 away win, 2 draws and 4 defeats. The visitors lost 4 of these matches by a margin of at least two goals.

Little scoring action? 5 league fixtures in a row with this club have had at most two goals.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Santa Cruz as they have only managed to score 4 times from 7 away games in the league.

Head 2 Head

Bolívar have won or drawn the last 5 matches (4-1-0) facing Santa Cruz.
