Portuguesa form and stats

The story so far in the Primera Division for Portuguesa at their home stadium (Estadio General José Antonio Páez) is 2 wins, 0 draws and 3 defeats. The happy trend is alive also outside their own arena as Portuguesa has won their last four matches.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Portuguesa, as their goalkeeper Yhonatann Alexander Yustiz Linarez has completely shut out the opponents for 332 minutes in the Primera Division.

Happy days for Portuguesa in their previous game, a fixture away at Estudiantes Merida (placed 11th) that ended with a 1-0 victory.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Hermanos Colmenares and winning 2-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Trench warfare? In this club's last 11 league matches, 10 have contained less than three goals (under 2.5).
