The season is still fairly new and the Primera Division table has to be read with caution. So far Junior Managua find themselves in 8th position and Diriangén are placed 6th.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Junior Managua form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Junior Managua's two home games in the Primera Division so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Estadio Nacional de Fútbol.
Managua shared the glory with Chinandega in their last match, an away game that ended all square 2-2.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Junior Managua at home in the league. 1 on target and 4 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Diriangén form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Primera Division for Diriangén with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.
Diriangén are looking to quickly end their 180 minutes long goal drought in the Primera Division.
Diriangén might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Walter Ferreti proved too strong as Diriangén slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Cacique Diriangén. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Jalapa wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.
Diriangén were so close to getting something from the game against Walter Ferreti, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Primera Division trip to Real Estelí.
It's early days yet, but Diriangén has scored 1 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
