Dorados form and stats

Dorados's struggle is real here at Estadio Banorte with only 6 points collected from 8 Liga de Expansión MX games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-3-4.

It's back home for Dorados, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Universidad Guadalajara away with the result 1-0. A. Zamora found the net in that victory. Preceding that game was the away draw at Mineros de Zacatecas that finished 1-1.

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 Dorados have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won three, drawn seven and lost two.

Dorados are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.
