CD Platense favourites for feisty fight facing Jocoro

It's no vacation for neither CD Platense nor Jocoro 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.

CD Platense form and stats

With 2 Primera Division wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, CD Platense are certainly not brimming with confidence. When CD Platense hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Santa Tecla, Chalatenango and CD Platense), they have won 2 of 3 matches! We have seen two home losses in a row now for Platense, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

CD Platense enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Atletico Marte's place. The match ended 3-2 with Lopez and Giacopetti (2) scoring. A huge relief, as that was the first three points in the league after playing, but not winning, eight matches in a row.

Before that game, the home loss against Dragon with the scoreline 0-2.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does CD Platense handle that role? We have found 9 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 5 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat.

The manager Dieguez will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Chalatenango in only four days.

The Platense fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 9 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for CD Platense with 21 goals conceded in these matches.

Jocoro form and stats

Jocoro have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Primera Division, after 2-0-7 (9 played). It's a growing despair in Jocoro as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

Jocoro have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 197 minutes ago. Paz was the goal scorer.

A 0-1 defeat away at Santa Tecla before that.
