Sarmiento form and stats

When playing at home in the Superliga, Sarmiento have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 9 games. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Estadio Eva Perón de Junín, but a victory now would be sweet for Sarmiento.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 396 minutes without scoring a league goal. Toledo was the last player to find the net.

Sarmiento are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Independiente. Before that fixture this team had gone six consecutive league fixtures without a defeat. Quinteros was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.85 out of 10. The defender Quinteros won 13 of 15 duels.

Before that, Sarmiento drew at home versus Newell's Old Boys.

It should be considered that a glance at the 14 latest league matches reveals that 12 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the teams scored).

Sarmiento are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 9 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Sarmiento have conceded 10 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Lanús wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
