Siquinalá form and stats

With 1 Liga Nacional win, 2 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Siquinalá, who have the most conceded goals (43) in Liga Nacional, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Siquinalá are slowly digging their own grave here at Estadio Municipal Mateo Sicay Paz with the depressing streak of not having won a home game in nine attempts. The last victory here came in the Mixco match. It's trouble wherever Siquinalá are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The fans are hoping that Siquinalá will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-6 away loss in the Liga Nacional game against Malacateco (placed 7th). Before that game, the home loss against Municipal with the scoreline 1-2.

Siquinalá were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

The Siquinalá fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 10 matches. Siquinalá have conceded 18 from these games.
