Pérez Zeledón form and stats

The visitors are W2-D6-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Primera Division. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Santos de Guapiles game have they lost an away game, meaning Zeledón has taken points from eight away matches in a row.

It's the second away game in a row for Pérez Zeledón, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Guadalupe (placed 11th) in the Primera Division last time out. Prior to that match, a home win 3-2 against Limon.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Zeledón as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (8 so far).

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Pérez Zeledón - Carlos 1-1 earlier this season. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): San Carlos five wins, two draws and Pérez Zeledón three victories. As for goals, eight matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two games had two or less.
