Talleres Córdoba form and stats

The overall Superliga results at home this season for Talleres Córdoba are 2-0-2 (wins-draws-losses).

Talleres Córdoba shared the glory with Defensa y Justicia in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1.

Preceding that match was the home game against Velez Sarsfield that was lost 1-2.

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 Talleres Córdoba have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 18 games) they have won 9 times, drawn 3 and lost 6.

The Talleres fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches.

Banfield form and stats

No Superliga points yet away for Banfield, from their first 3 matches.

Banfield had fun at their own home (Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes) last time out, beating Boca Juniors 1-0. Quirós scored. Yippee; their first victory in the league after six games not winning. Midfield player Alemán was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.02/10. Alemán served one assist, hit six key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Atletico Tucuman wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Banfield are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of 10 matches.

Fancy a bet on few goals? 5 league matches in a row with this side have had two goals or less.

The attacking power of Banfield when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Stats for the last ten meetings featuring these two participants are: seven wins for Talleres, two draws and one win for Banfield. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games. The games between these teams have had a tendency to be brutal, having seen 5 red cards from the last ten encounters.
