Grecia will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 6 points behind Guadalupe.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Grecia and Guadalupe.
Grecia form and stats
Overall Primera Division stats at home this season for Grecia are 4-2-3 (wins-draw-losses). Grecia has recorded two wins in a row here at Estadio Allen Riggioni Suárez, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
Grecia's last game was hosting Alajuelense (placed 2nd) and winning 3-1. 1-1 away at ADR Jicaral before that.
This is expected to be a close game, with Grecia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Grecia as a small favourite), we find five games. Grecia has won one of these, drawn two and lost two.
The manager F. Palomeque Díaz will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Limon in only three days.
Grecia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 9 goals in 9 games. Grecia's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 11 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Guadalupe form and stats
There's been little loot from Guadalupe's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 9 away games in the Primera Division. Guadalupe only have 1 win to counter their 3 defeats and 5 draws. Guadalupe has drawn their two previous away games.
Guadalupe had fun at their own home (Estadio Allen Riggioni Suárez) last time out, beating Perez Zeledon 3-1. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Herediano that ended 0-0.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Guadalupe playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were three Guadalupe wins, two draws and two defeats.
A quick return to home after this game, as Guadalupe are hosting Alajuelense in the Primera Division only three days away.
Guadalupe have scored 9 goals on their travels this season, from 9 away games in the league. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Guadalupe have conceded 15 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
