Grecia have some catching up to do from their 12th position, and the first chance is against Puntarenas. Read more!
- Grecia is in the worst form (0-3-3)
- Puntarenas have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
It's no vacation for neither Grecia nor Puntarenas as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Grecia form and stats
Grecia have played three Primera Division home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
The Grecia club members got no joy from their last match, also played here at Estadio Allen Riggioni Suárez: A 3-4 defeat against Guadalupe (placed 9th). As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Santos de Guápiles.Observe: 8 of the latest 10 league games from these players have had at least one goal from each side.
Grecia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Grecia defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Puntarenas form and stats
Puntarenas are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Primera Division, having played 3 games and collected 4 points (1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss).
González (2) scored in Puntarenas's previous match, the home game against Cartagines that ended 2-0. Which player has beaten the opponent goalie three matches in a row for the away side? The correct answer is González and that is quite the accomplishment!
Prior to that result Puntarenas won their away game at Guadalupe. The scoreline was 1-0.Many goals are not expected from the visiting Puntarenas as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. Puntarenas have conceded 4 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
The teams have met each other before in this season, with the result Grecia - Puntarenas 1-0 logged in the official records. Gordon (Puntarenas) and Evans (Grecia) were sent off when these teams met previously this season. Will it be as ill-natured this time? Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - two - four (Grecia wins - draws - Puntarenas wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
