Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Xerez & Moralo face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Copa Federacion. All the pre-match information is available here!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Xerez form and stats
Xerez was eliminated in the quarter-finals last season in the Copa Federacion.In their previous game, the manager Sevilla led his Xerez to a defeat away at Lucena. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio de La Juventud. Heartbreak for Xerez in their last match as Lucena's Pino scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
Before that, Xerez played out a Tercera - Group 10 draw 0-0 when visiting Cordoba II.This is expected to be a close game, with Xerez perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Xerez as a small favourite), we find 7 games. Xerez has won 5 of these, drawn 0 and lost 2.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Xerez as they have a new game in only four days, a Tercera - Group 10 match thankfully also at home. Pozoblanco are visiting.
With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Xerez friendly games in pre-season: Xerez played one friendly, won 1, drew 0 and lost 0. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Xerez scored 1 goal and conceded 0 in these one game.
Moralo form and stats
Moralo's mission in Copa Federacion last season failed in the quarter-finals.Moralo has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Olivenza for a 1-1 draw.
The game before that, in the Tercera - Group 14, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Atletico Pueblonuevo.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 6 similar matches played by Moralo in our archives, and the results are: 4 wins for Moralo, 1 draw and 1 defeat.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting La Estrella in just four days.
It's a day of discovery for Moralo as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Moralo have played two with the results W1-D1-L0 (win-draw-lost). In these games Moralo has scored 3 goals and conceded 2 times.
