Xinabajul form and stats

Xinabajul have played 11 Liga Nacional games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-4-2 (wins-draws-losses).

The Xinabajul fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Estadio Los Cuchumatanes: A 1-2 defeat against Municipal. The first setback in the shape of a defeat after collecting points in four league games.

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

An interesting fact: 9 of the latest 11 league matches from this club have had goals from both teams.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Xinabajul as they are travelling to their away game against Malacateco in the Liga Nacional. That match is three days after this one.

Xinabajul has scored 15 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. From these home matches, Xinabajul have conceded only 10 goals.

Achuapa form and stats

Achuapa have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Liga Nacional, after 0-4-7 (11 played). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Achuapa have lost on their last two travels.

Achuapa are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the game against Guastatoya. Those three points felt good as this side had gone four league fixtures without victory.

Prior to that match, the Achuapa manager Rosas faced defeat when travelling to Municipal and losing 1-5.

A new game in only four days for Achuapa, the Liga Nacional home match versus Santa Lucia. Busy days.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Achuapa as they have only managed to score 8 times from 11 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Achuapa have conceded 25 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Achuapa - Xinabajul 4-2 was the result in these sides' last H2H fixture, earlier this season. Data for the previous three meetings involving these two contenders are: zero wins for Xinabajul, two draws and one win for Achuapa. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: one game. The games between these sides have sometimes been "violent", having seen 3 red cards from the last three duels.
