Deportivo Español form and stats

When playing at home in the Primera C, Deportivo Español have managed 3 wins, 4 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 8 games. Two home wins in a row for Deportivo Español bring valid hopes of a third.

Español's previous game was also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Sportivo Italiano (placed 8th). The home side are looking to build on that result.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Leandro Niceforo Alem (0-1).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Deportivo Español have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 5 games) they have won 3 times, drawn 1 and lost 1.

Trouble hitting the net? In this team's last 14 league games, 12 have contained less than three goals (under 2.5).

The Deportivo Español fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. Español are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Nueva España in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 5 from 8 matches.
