Guaireña form and stats

Guaireña have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Division 1, after 1-4-3 (8 played). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Guaireña have lost on their last two travels.

Guaireña had fun at their own home (Estadio Leandro Ovelar) last time out, beating Olimpia 1-0. Acosta scored. That win was so needed for this club, after a terrible sequence of 13 league matches in a row not winning.

Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Cerro Porteno's place.

Guaireña are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 3 draws and 1 defeat. From a total of 5 matches.

Low on goals? 12 of this side's last 14 league matches have had two or less goals.

The attacking power of Guaireña when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 8 league matches away. 10 goals have been conceded by Guaireña in these games. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
