Santa Fe form and stats

As the visiting team in Liga BetPlay matches, Santa Fe have produced an overall stat of 1-2-1 so far.

Santa had fun at their own home (Estadio Olímpico Pascual Guerrero) last time out, beating La Equidad 2-1. P. Cucchi and J. Ramos scored. Before that, Santa travelled to La Equidad and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager H. Rivera Roa when P. Cucchi scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 86th minute.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Santa in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Santa Fe, four draws and four defeats.

Santa are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 4 away games. Santa are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 1 goal away.
