Season ticket holders haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Valledupar languishing in the 12th position so far. The guesting Cortuluá will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
It's quite the trip for Cortuluá when visiting Valledupar as the cities are 1000 kilometers apart.
Valledupar form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories so far this season. Valledupar have only managed 1 win, 4 draws and 2 losses so far from their games here. Valledupar are slowly digging their own grave here with the depressing streak of not having won a home game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Real Santander match.The points were shared in Valledupar's previous game, also at home. Visiting Alianza Petrolera travelled back with a point after a 1-1 scoreline. Preceding that match was a Primera B defeat to Boyacá Chicó (0-1).
The Valledupar fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 7 in 7 matches. On the other hand, Valledupar have conceded 7 goals.
Cortuluá form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Cortuluá so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-3 (win-draw-lose). Cortuluá has drawn their two previous away games.It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Deportes Quindío in their previous outing. The Copa Colombia match ended in a draw 1-1. Before that, Cortuluá travelled to Real Santander and returned home with a draw after the Primera B game finished 2-2.
Cortuluá have scored more than twice per away game on average, an impressive attacking display. They have 12 goals from 6 away matches. The Cortuluá manager M. Candelo has some worries about the defense as 13 goals have been conceded in these travels.
