The visiting Motagua side should be favourites in this visit to Real Sociedad, as the away team holds a 20 point advantage from their 16 league games this season.
Motagua could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Concacaf League game only three sleeps ago. That game, against Deportivo Saprissa, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Motagua.
Real Sociedad form and stats
Real Sociedad's struggle is real here at Estadio Francisco Martinez Duron with only 4 points collected from 8 Liga Nacional games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-6. The Real Sociedad manager C. Tabora might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
Real Sociedad's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Olimpia (placed 1st). In the game before, an away victory match versus Honduras Progreso with a 1-0 scoreline.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Real Sociedad here at Estadio Francisco Martinez Duron in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (7 from 8 games). Real Sociedad have conceded 16 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Motagua form and stats
3 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses. That’s the product of Motagua playing as the away team in the Liga Nacional this season. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Motagua have lost on their last two travels.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Motagua, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Deportivo Saprissa. A 0-2 defeat away at Olimpia before that.
Motagua have scored 10 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. Motagua have conceded 12 goals in these games.
