Duros del Balón form and stats

Duros del Balón are yet to lose a point on their Primera B travels this season with 3 wins from 3 away games.

It's the second away game in a row for Duros del Balón, but there's smiles all around after the 2-0 victory versus Fuerza Amarilla (placed 8th) in the Primera B last time out. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Gualaceo.

The schedule is very tough for Duros del Balón now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Primera B game at 9 de Octubre is waiting in only two days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Duros have scored 4 goals in 3 league games away. Duros are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 0 goals away.
