General Díaz form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for General Díaz, who have the most conceded goals (46) in Division 1, so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-8 (win-draw-lose). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for General, who have now gone eleven games without a victory. The River Plate game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.
General Díaz might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Sportivo Luqueño proved too strong as General Díaz slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio General Adrián Jara. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against 12 de Octubre wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
Late heartbreak for General in the Sportivo Luqueño match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.
General have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 11 league away games 12 goals have been scored. The General manager R. Pereira has some worries about the defense as 27 goals have been conceded in these travels.
