LDU Loja form and stats

With 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, LDU Loja are certainly not brimming with confidence. With seven home games in a row without a win, the LDU Loja fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Clan Juvenil game long ago, can be stopped today.

The home supporters saw a 0-0 draw versus Gualaceo in the Primera B last time out and are looking for a win here. Heartbreak before that as LDU Loja lost 0-1 at Puerto Quito's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with LDU Loja perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with LDU Loja as a small favourite), we find three games. LDU Loja has won 0 of these, drawn 2 and lost 1.

LDU Loja has scored 11 goals at home this season, in 8 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the LDU Loja defense is not exactly impregnable. 13 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
