11th- against 5th spot might not seem all that juicy. But: Tipsway has the facts that makes Mixco - Municipal (even) more exciting!

Insights:
  • Mixco have the fewest scored goals (17) in Liga Nacional
  • Municipal have the the best goal difference (+5) away in Liga Nacional

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Municipal have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 3-1-2 (win-draw-loss) from six matches.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Mixco and Municipal.

Mixco form and stats

Mixco's struggle is real here at Estadio Santo Domingo de Guzmán with only 11 points collected from 11 Liga Nacional games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-5-4. Mixco are on a three game winning streak in their home games.

Mixco's previous game was also played at home, ending 3-1 versus Municipal. The home side are looking to build on that result.

A 0-0 draw away before that, with Xelaju the opponent.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Mixco have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 2 and lost 2.

The Mixco fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 11 matches. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 16 goals have been conceded.
