Colón form and stats

Colón have played 9 Superliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-3-3 (wins-draws-losses). Colón has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager Rondina and the players.

No payout for Colón in their previous match, an away game at Banfield that ended in defeat 1-2. Colón's goalkeeper Chicco was extremely busy against Banfield, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning six saves. Delgado was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.44 out of 10. The defender Delgado hit one key pass and won 7 of 8 duels.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Boca Juniors (1-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with Colón perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Colón as a small favourite), we find 17 games. Colón has won 5 of these, drawn 4 and lost 8.

There will be little rest for Colón after this match as they are travelling to Talleres Cordoba for a Superliga game in only four days.

Colón are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 9 games. Colón have conceded 12 in these home matches.
