Estudiantes form and stats

6-3-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Superliga numbers at home for Estudiantes so far this season.

Estudiantes faced defeat in their previous match, away at Atletico Tucuman (1-3). Midfield player Castro got a match rating of 7.54 in that game, the max score being 10. Castro served one assist and hit four key passes.

Before that game, the home loss against Defensa y Justicia with the scoreline 1-2.

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 Estudiantes have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 16 games) they have won 9 times, drawn 5 and lost 2.

Trouble hitting the net? In this club's last 11 league matches, 9 have had two goals or less.

The Estudiantes fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 11 matches. From these home matches, Estudiantes have conceded only 9 goals.

Colón form and stats

Colón have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Superliga, after 1-3-6 (10 played). It's all red in the travel logs of Colón, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.

Farias was the last player to score for the away team. Colón haven't scored a league goal in the last 344 minutes.

Colón's previous game was their home loss versus Argentinos Juniors (0-4). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Argentinos Juniors was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind. The attacker Rodríguez got a match rating of 7.61 in that game. Rodríguez hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Talleres Cordoba's place.

Colón are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 9 matches.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Colón's away games in the league this season with only 5 goals from 10 matches. 12 goals have been conceded by Colón in these games.

Head 2 Head

Colón have avoided a loss in the last 6 matches (3-3-0) against Estudiantes.

Colón - Estudiantes 2-2 was the scoreline in these squads' last H2H game, earlier this season. The matches between these teams have sometimes been hot-tempered, having seen 4 red cards from the last eight encounters.
