It's advantage Cartaginés so far with their 1st position in the Primera Division table, welcoming Sporting San José who are placed 4th.
Sporting San José could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Primera Division game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Deportivo Saprissa. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Cartaginés form and stats
3 victories, 1 draw and 0 defeats. That’s what Cartaginés, who have the most scored goals (20) in Primera Division, have to build on here at Estadio José Rafael Fello Meza in the Primera Division.
No payout for Cartaginés in their previous match, an away game at ADR Jicaral that ended in defeat 0-1. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Deportivo Saprissa in a game that was won 2-1.
Goals are plentiful at Estadio José Rafael Fello Meza in the league this season as Cartaginés has scored 12 goals here in 4 home games. Cartaginés are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio José Rafael Fello Meza in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 3 from 4 matches.
Sporting San José form and stats
The visitors are W1-D1-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Primera Division. It's looking increasingly bleak for José who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. San Carlos was the last time a defeat was avoided. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as José have lost on their last two travels.
José are travelling again after losing away to Deportivo Saprissa in their previous match (1-2). A loss against Limón was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far José have scored 4 goals in 4 league games away. José's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.
