Match begins: 19:45 (UTC)
Venue: Estadio Fernando Torres (5000 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Fuenlabrada are in the 12th position while the guesting Numancia worry at 16th.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the La Liga 2. That game was an away game at Rayo Vallecano, so at least Fuenlabrada are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Fuenlabrada form and stats

Fuenlabrada have collected 24 points from their La Liga 2 home games so far after 6-6-4.

The fans are hoping that Fuenlabrada will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the La Liga 2 game against Rayo Vallecano (placed 6th). Ahead of that match, Fuenlabrada won a home game hosting Tenerife (1-0).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Fuenlabrada have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won six, drawn four and lost two.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Fuenlabrada as they are travelling to their away game against Real Oviedo in the La Liga 2. That match is four days after this one.

The Fuenlabrada fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 16 matches. Fuenlabrada's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 17 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Numancia form and stats

There's been little loot from Numancia's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 16 away games in the La Liga 2. Numancia only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 6 draws. With the Numancia losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. A depressing five defeats in a row for Numancia in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Alcorcón.

There might be some fixture complaints from Numancia as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the La Liga 2 match against Mirandés (1-2). A 1-2 loss hosting Racing Santander before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Numancia playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were one Numancia win, five draws and five defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Numancia have scored 18 goals in 16 league games away. As for defending, Numancia rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 26 goals from these away matches.
