Sportivo San Lorenzo form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Sportivo San Lorenzo, who have the fewest points (2) away in Division 1, so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-8 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Sportivo have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Guarani game.

Sportivo won their last game, 2-1 versus General Diaz played at home. Prior to that match, the Sportivo manager C. Martínez Medina faced defeat when travelling to Guairena and losing 0-4.

The attacking power of Sportivo San Lorenzo when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 10 league matches away. For Sportivo, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
