Lanús are considered as expected winners of this home game vs Sarmiento, if the league standings are thought to provide some clues. Or could we be looking at a possible?
- Lanús have the most scored goals (19) in Superliga
- Sarmiento have yet to win a game away.
Both teams have had plentiful rest since their previous exertion in an official match. Let's wish for an energetic fixture!
Lanús form and stats
When playing at home in the Superliga, Lanús, who have the most scored goals (19) in Superliga, have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 1 defeat from 5 games. Lanús has recorded two wins in a row here at Estadio Ciudad de Lanús - Néstor Díaz Pérez, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
It's back home for Lanús, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Aldosivi away with the result 3-2. José López and José Sand (2) found the net in that victory. José López, who plays in attack, was the top performer for the team in that game, scoring a rating of 8.55 (out of 10). López scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times.
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Gimnasia La Plata in a game that was won 2-0.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 Lanús have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eleven games) they have won seven times, drawn three and lost one.
Lanús can score goals in their home matches. After 5 league matches they have found the net 10 times. Lanús have conceded 7 in these home matches.
Sarmiento form and stats
The visitors are W0-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Superliga. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Sarmiento have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 13 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Deportivo Riestra game.
The manager M. Sciacqua was unhappy after their last game, a Superliga match played at their home ground Estadio Eva Perón de Junín. Sarmiento suffered a 1-2 loss to River Plate (placed 4th). Attacker Jonathan Torres got a player rating of 7.1 in the game. "Man of the match" Torres dribled passed the opponent 3 of 3 times. Sarmiento were so close to getting something from the game against River Plate, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime.
Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Colón.Sarmiento are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, two draws and four defeats. From a total of seven matches.
The attacking power of Sarmiento when travelling is not overwhelming with 3 goals scored from 4 league matches away. The Sarmiento manager M. Sciacqua has some worries about the defense as 8 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
It's not the first time these sides meet on the pitch this season, as the records show this recent fixture: Sarmiento - Lanús 1-0. Head-2-head stats last three meetings: two - zero - one (Lanús wins - draws - Sarmiento wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.Top Goalscorers
