Deportivo Riestra form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Primera B Nacional travels is 3 wins, 11 draws and 4 defeats.

Two away games in a row for Deportivo Riestra, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Estudiantes Río Cuarto. That loss was their first after four consecutive league matches winning points.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Atletico Rafaela at their stadium, the result 2-0.

We have checked recent matches where Deportivo Riestra have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 26 games were 6 victories, 12 draws and 8 defeats.

Fancy a bet on few goals? 15 league games in a row with this team have had two goals or less.

The attacking power of Deportivo Riestra when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 18 league matches away. It's not easy to score on Riestra as they have only conceded 16 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head
