Platense form and stats

The total Primera A stats playing at home this season for Platense are 2-1-3 (wins-draws-losses). When Platense hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Platense, Excursionistas, Villa San Carlos, SAT, Comunicaciones and El Porvenir), they have won 2 of 2 matches! Three consecutive losses here at Estadio Ciudad de Vicente López is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

A good away victory last time out for Platense, who won 1-0 against Rosario Central (placed 5th).

Before that game, the home loss against Racing Club with the scoreline 0-2.

There will be little rest for Platense after this match as they are travelling to Defensores de Belgrano for a Primera A game in only two days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Platense at home in the league. 6 on target and 6 scored by the opposition; from 6 matches.

Deportivo Español form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Deportivo Español so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 1-0-5 (win-draw-lose). Football is a nightmare at the moment for Deportivo Español who have suffered through a nine match losing streak. If there's light at the end of the tunnel it's certainly not visible for the supporters.

This match can not go any worse than the previous one, the home loss versus Huracan with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Lanus's place.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 12 of this team's 14 most recent league games have ended with three goals or more.

A new game in only two days for Español, the Primera A home match versus Ferro Carril Oeste. Busy days.

Deportivo Español are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 6 away games. There are big problems for the Deportivo Español defense as they have conceded 29 goals in 6 away games. When Español is visiting a side on the bottom half, 3 of 3 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Excursionistas, Villa San Carlos, SAT, Comunicaciones, Deportivo Español and El Porvenir.
