San Luis form and stats

When playing at home in the Primera B, San Luis have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 11 games.

Happy days for Luis in their previous game, a Primera B match away at San Marcos (placed 6th) that ended with a 2-1 victory.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Cobreloa.

This is expected to be a close game, with San Luis perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with San Luis as a small favourite), we find 21 games. San Luis has won six of these, drawn seven and lost eight.

San Luis have scored 10 league goals here from 11 matches, not a lot. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 12 goals have been conceded.

Deportes Santa Cruz form and stats

5 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Deportes Santa Cruz playing as the away team in the Primera B this season. Recent form does not give Deportes much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. San Luis will be a tough nut to crack.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Primera B home defeat versus Copiapó with 1-2 on the scoreboard.

Prior to that match, the Deportes manager O. Hurtado Galleguillos faced defeat when travelling to Deportes Iquique and losing 1-6.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found six similar matches played by Deportes Santa Cruz in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Deportes Santa Cruz, one draw and three defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Deportes have scored 13 goals in 12 league games away. As opposed to that, Deportes have seen the ball go into their own net 15 times on the road. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
