This match features two teams living in the basement of the Primera Division, Pérez Zeledón holding 10th place and UCR lying 12th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
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 Zeledón and UCR.
Pérez Zeledón form and stats
With 2 Primera Division wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Pérez Zeledón are certainly not brimming with confidence.
Zeledón faced defeat in their previous match, away at Santos de Guapiles (1-3). Before that, Pérez Zeledón drew at home versus Limon.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Primera Division game versus UCR in only two days. This game is also played here at Polideportivo de Zeledón.
Pérez Zeledón are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 10 games. Pérez Zeledón have conceded 17 from these games.
UCR form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for UCR, who have the most conceded goals (51) in Primera Division, so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-8 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved UCR have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Santos de Guapiles game. It's a growing despair in UCR as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
UCR's previous game was their home loss versus San Carlos (1-2). A 0-5 defeat away at ADR Jicaral before that.
UCR were so close to getting something from the game against San Carlos, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal four minutes into overtime.
After this away game UCR return home for a Primera Division game against Deportivo Saprissa. That game is only two sleeps after this.
The visiting UCR have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 10 goals from 10 games. The UCR defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 35 goals in their away games.
