There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Duros del Balón leading Fuerza Amarilla by 7 points.
It's no vacation for neither Duros nor Fuerza Amarilla as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Duros del Balón form and stats
Duros del Balón, who have the most clean sheets (6) in Primera B, have played 5 Primera B games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-0-2 (wins-draws-losses).
Duros del Balón travelled for their previous game, a trip to Gualaceo that ended 1-1. Preceding that match was a defeat to América de Quito (0-1).
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Primera B game versus Manta in only three days. This game is also played here.
Duros has scored 5 league goals at home this season, in 5 matches. On the other hand, Duros have conceded 5 goals.
Fuerza Amarilla form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Fuerza Amarilla so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-3 (win-draw-lose). Two points from the last two away games for Amarilla, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
The manager M. Tatángelo was unhappy after their last game, a Primera B match played at their home ground Estadio 9 de Mayo. Amarilla suffered a 0-3 loss to Manta (placed 2nd). Before that, Amarilla travelled to Gualaceo and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
Amarilla did not look prepared in the first half against Manta and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.
After this away game Fuerza Amarilla return home for a Primera B game against Santa Rita. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Amarilla have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 6 league away games 6 goals have been scored. As for defending, Amarilla rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 9 goals from these away matches.
