The league table in Primera Division tells a story about these teams so far, with San Carlos leading Limon by 10 points. Match preview to follow:

The hosts San Carlos saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Primera Division. That game was an away game at Santos de Guápiles, so at least San Carlos are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Limón have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 2-1-5 (win-draw-loss) from eight matches.

Limón is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
