Comunicaciones form and stats

Comunicaciones have collected 12 points from their Liga Nacional home games so far after 4-0-1. Comunicaciones 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 Cementos Progreso. We remember; it was Cobán Imperial.

Comunicaciones manager M. Tapia and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Cobán Imperial (placed 6th) in the Liga Nacional. The points were shared before that, a Concacaf League home game that ended 0-0 versus Olimpia.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Cotzumalguapa are coming to town in three days.

Municipal form and stats

Playing away, Municipal have won 1 game, drawn 1 and suffered 3 defeats in the Liga Nacional this season. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Municipal have lost on their last two travels.

Municipal won their last game, 2-0 versus Xelaju played at home. A draw for Municipal before that, at their own venue hosting Antigua GFC (2-2).

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Municipal as they have only managed to score 4 times from 5 away games in the league. Municipal have conceded 6 goals in these away matches.
