Santos de Guápiles form and stats

1-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Santos de Guápiles in their Primera Division matches away.

Impressive finishing from E. Méndez secured the home win 1-0 against Plaza Amador in their previous game. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager E. Rodríguez Santamaría when E. Méndez scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 55th minute.

A 3-3 draw was the result before that, hosting Deportivo Saprissa in the Primera Division.

Santos de Guápiles have another game that requires travelling in just three sleeps, a Concacaf League game against Plaza Amador. A difficult diary for the guests!
