Lanús form and stats

Lanús, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) at home in Superliga, have collected 9 points from their Superliga home games so far after 3-0-2. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Lanús with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Gimnasia La Plata game, 36 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Lanús, their manager L. Zubeldía and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Heartbreak before that as Lanús lost 0-1 at Boca Juniors's place.

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

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Lanús as they are travelling to their away game against Gremio in the Copa Sudamericana. That match is four days after this one.

Goals decide football matches and Lanús are scoring many of them at home; 10 on target from 5 league matches. Lanús have conceded 9 from these games.

Talleres Córdoba form and stats

As the visiting team in Superliga matches, Talleres Córdoba have produced an overall stat of 2-2-1 so far.

It's the second away game in a row for Talleres, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Bragantino in the Copa Sudamericana last time out. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Huracan in the Superliga.

The end of the last match, against Bragantino, was very satisfying as D. Valoyes scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Talleres Córdoba playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were two Talleres wins, two draws and five defeats.

After this away game Talleres return home for a Copa Sudamericana game against Deportes Tolima. That game is only two sleeps after this.

Talleres has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 8 goals from 5 games. Talleres struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 9 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

Lanús-Talleres Córdoba H2H statistics last six meetings regardless of arena: Lanús three wins, Talleres Córdoba two wins, one draw. four of these six matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
