Guadalupe form and stats
With 1 Primera Division win, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Guadalupe are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded. When Guadalupe hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Perez Zeledon, Puntarenas and Grecia), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 4 of 5 times.
