Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Envigado in 11th and Alianza Petrolera in 13th place.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Envigado form and stats

Overall Liga BetPlay stats at home this season for Envigado are 3-2-2 (wins-draw-losses).

Envigado's previous game was a Copa Colombia match also played at home, ending 3-0 versus Once Caldas (placed 7th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Heartbreak before that as Envigado lost 0-1 at Cucuta Deportivo's place.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Envigado have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won two, drawn three and lost zero.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Envigado as they are travelling to their away game against Once Caldas in the Copa Colombia. That match is three days after this one.

The Envigado fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 7 matches. Envigado are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Polideportivo Sur in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 7 matches.

Alianza Petrolera form and stats

Alianza Petrolera, who have the most conceded goals (15) away in Liga BetPlay, have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Liga BetPlay, after 2-1-4 (7 played). It's looking increasingly bleak for Petrolera who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Once Caldas was the last time a defeat was avoided. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Petrolera are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Alianza Petrolera are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Atletico Bucaramanga (placed 14th). A loss against Rionegro Aguilas was the result prior to that, in a Liga BetPlay home game.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Petrolera playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were three Alianza Petrolera wins, five draws and one defeat.

A new game in only four days for Petrolera, the Copa Colombia home match versus Atletico Bucaramanga. Busy days.

Petrolera are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 10 away goals from 7 games (in the league). Alianza Petrolera have conceded 15 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: five - two - three (Envigado wins - draws - Alianza Petrolera wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.
