Central Cordoba SdE form and stats

There's been little loot from Central Cordoba SdE's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 6 away games in the Superliga. Central Cordoba SdE only have 0 wins to counter their 3 defeats and 3 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

Central Cordoba SdE might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. River Plate proved too strong as Central Cordoba SdE slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Alfredo Terrera. Midfield player Juan Daniel Galeano was the top player of the team with a match rating of 6.95/10. Galeano hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 30 successful passes (of 37 total).

Prior to that match, the Central manager S. Rondina faced defeat when travelling to Colon and losing 0-1.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Central's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 6 matches. It's not easy to score on Central as they have only conceded 5 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last two meetings: one - zero - one (Lanús wins - draws - Central Cordoba SdE wins). As for goals, zero matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
