The Primera B league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Santa Rita and Fuerza Amarilla are placed 9th and 8th respectively.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Santa Rita form and stats
Only two Primera B home games for Santa Rita so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
The fans are hoping that Santa Rita will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Primera B game against Gualaceo (placed 7th).
Heartbreak for Santa in their last match as Gualaceo's L. de Jesus scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
The manager R. Merchancano Preciado will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Independiente Juniors in only one day.
Early season league goal statistics from Santa Rita's 2 home games: 3 goals, 2 conceded.
Fuerza Amarilla form and stats
It's not happening yet for Fuerza Amarilla on their Primera B travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Amarilla have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 16 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Emelec game.
Fuerza Amarilla might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Duros del Balón proved too strong as Amarilla slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio 9 de Mayo.
Amarilla has another fixture away, a Primera B game, against Chacaritas in just one days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
3 goals so far away for Fuerza Amarilla, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
Last four meetings between the teams: Santa won zero, Fuerza Amarilla won two and two draws. zero games with over 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.Santa Rita missing players
