Juventus Managua form and stats

There's been little loot from Juventus Managua's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 9 away games in the Primera Division. Juventus Managua only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws. With the Juventus losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on A. Morales Castillo, the Juventus manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Preceding that game, the 2-4 loss visiting Diriangén's place.

A new game in only three days for Juventus, the Primera Division home match versus Deportivo Ocotal. Busy days.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Juventus as they have only managed to score 6 times from 9 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Juventus have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
