It's the second chance for points this season as Achuapa and Malacateco battle it out at Estadio Municipal Manuel Ariza.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Achuapa form and stats
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper not having conceded a league goal in 195 minutes.
Achuapa shared the glory with Nueva Concepcion in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0.
A strong away win before that one, visiting Cotzumalguapa and winning 2-0.There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Achuapa, as the Liga Nacional home game vs Comunicaciones is only four days away.

Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Deportivo Sanarate.The schedule is very tough for Malacateco now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Liga Nacional game at Municipal is waiting in only four days.
