Univ. Concepción form and stats

The visitors are W3-D7-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Primera Division. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Concepción's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Concepción's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Palestino that finished 1-1. A 0-2 defeat away at Universidad Chile before that.

A quick return to home after this game, as Concepción are hosting Colo-Colo in the Primera Division only three days away.

Concepción have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 14 league away games 15 goals have been scored. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Concepción have seen the ball go into their own net 20 times on the road.
