Patronato form and stats

Patronato have less points than they have played home games in the Superliga so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 0 points. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Patronato with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Talleres Cordoba game, 34 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Patronato are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Estadio Presbítero Bartolomé Grella, having lost their two previous games here.

Patronato lost their last game at Atlético Tucumán (placed 8th) after a 2-4 scoreline. Before that game, the home loss against Union Santa Fe with the scoreline 0-1.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Patronato have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won four, drawn seven and lost three.

Patronato has scored 0 goals so far and conceded 2 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Huracán form and stats

The Superliga season is young and Huracán have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far. The Huracán manager I. Damonte is a generous human being, having led his team to four draws in a row during the last 33 days. Visiting Huracán has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Huracán are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Atlético Tucumán (placed 8th). Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Lanus.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Huracán playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were three Huracán wins, one draw and three defeats.

Huracán have scored 4 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. Huracán have conceded 5 goals in these games.
