Guayaquil form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Guayaquil have to build on here in the Primera B.

Independiente Juniors form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Independiente Juniors so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 0-4-7 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

The fans enjoyed Independiente's previous fixture versus Macara (placed 1st), a 1-0 win played at home. That victory felt good as this team had gone four league matches without winning.

Preceding that game, the 0-4 loss visiting 9 de Octubre's place.

Few goals the story here? 10 of this club's last 13 league rounds have seen zero, one or two goals.

The visitors have scored 6 goals from 11 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Independiente Juniors have conceded 21 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Independiente Juniors have managed a sequence of 4 consecutive games without losing (2-2-0) when facing Guayaquil.

The two combatants have met previously this season: Independiente Juniors - Guayaquil 1-0.
