Possible nail-biting contest in Almagro - Quilmes game

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Quilmes form and stats

1-4-0 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Quilmes in their Primera B Nacional matches away. It's been quite a sequence of draws for Quilmes when traveling as their last four away games have all ended all square. Not since the Tigre match has the points been distributed unevenly.

The manager L. Lemos was unhappy after their last game, a Primera B Nacional match played at their home ground Estadio Almagro. Quilmes suffered a 1-4 loss to San Martín Tucumán (placed 2nd). A 1-1 draw at Instituto's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Quilmes playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were 1 Quilmes win, 4 draws and 2 defeats.

The attacking power of Quilmes when travelling is not overwhelming with 3 goals scored from 5 league matches away. Quilmes are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 2 away goals have been conceded so far.
