Deportes Valdivia form and stats

When playing at home in the Primera B, Deportes Valdivia have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 9 games. It's trouble wherever Deportes Valdivia are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Deportes, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Deportes are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 270 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by M. Zamora).

The Deportes Valdivia crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Melipilla here at Estadio El Parque Municipal in a Primera B match. Heartbreak before that as Deportes lost 0-1 at Copiapo's place.

There will be little rest for Deportes Valdivia after this match as they are travelling to Union San Felipe for a Primera B game in only three days.

The Deportes fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 9 matches. Deportes Valdivia have only conceded 8 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Ñublense, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun? F. Mateos certainly enjoyed Ñublense's last game versus Rangers, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 4-2 victory.
