We have to say that both participants are doing all right, San Martín Tucumán holding a 10 point edge on Deportivo Riestra in the tables. Get ready!

Insights:
  • Deportivo Riestra have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • San Martín Tucumán have the most clean sheets (19) in Primera B Nacional

These teams have little in common geographically as San Martín Tucumán have to travel 1200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

San Martín Tucumán form and stats

5 wins, 8 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of San Martín Tucumán playing as the away team in the Primera B Nacional this season.

San Martín Tucumán won their last game, 4-0 versus Club Atletico Guemes played at home. That victory felt nice as this side had gone four league matches without winning. As mentioned above, Tucumán was the only team on the pitch versus Club Atletico Guemes in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.

A 2-2 draw at All Boys's stadium before that.

Lacking goals? 14 of this club's latest 18 league matches have contained two goals or less.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far San Martín Tucumán have scored 19 goals in 15 league games away. It's not easy to score on Tucumán as they have only conceded 13 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head
