An important duel in the bottom section of the Primera Division, with both Real Madriz and Chinandega experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 8th and the visitors in 7th place.
Chinandega could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Primera Division game only three sleeps ago.
Real Madriz form and stats
When playing at home in the Primera Division, Real Madriz have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 8 games.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 185 minutes without scoring a league goal. N. Quiñones was the last player to find the net.
In their previous game, the manager J. Ramírez led his Real Madriz to a defeat in the Primera Division match away at Walter Ferreti. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Solidaridad Augusto Cesar Mendoza. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Managua that ended 0-0.
Real Madriz were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.
