The Real España manager R. Martínez attacks this game with the team placed 2nd so far. In the visitors dressing room Honduras Progreso and their manager J. Rodríguez Cristóbal are in 5th place before this match.

Real España form and stats
Only two Liga Nacional home games for Real España so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeat.
España's previous game was a Liga Nacional match also played at home, ending 5-0 versus Honduras Progreso (placed 5th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Prior to that, an away loss at Platense.
As indicated by the result mentioned above, España played a great game against Honduras Progreso and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Real España at home in the league. 6 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Honduras Progreso form and stats
Honduras Progreso have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Liga Nacional were 1 victory, 2 draws and 4 defeats from 7 fixtures.
Honduras lost away at Real España (0-5) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Vida.
Honduras lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.
It's early days yet, but Honduras Progreso has scored 0 and conceded 5 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
