Orense form and stats
4 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That’s what Orense, who have the most scored goals (23) in Primera B, have to build on here at Estadio 9 de Mayo in the Primera B. Orense haven’t lost a game in ten attempts regardless of arena, a great achievement. Their last loss was the fixture versus Gualaceo, 75 days ago. Orense has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Estadio 9 de Mayo. We remember; it was Santa Rita.
A good away victory last time out for Orense, who won 2-1 against LDU Portoviejo. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Manta.
