Granada form and stats

Granada have been very solid at home in the La Liga 2 so far, with 23 points collected from 9 matches (7-2-0). This has contributed greatly to their 7th position in the table. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Granada after consecutive victories at their own ground.

The home team returns to Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes after drawing with Málaga (placed 22nd) on their last time out; the game ended 1-1. Midfield player Callejón got a match rating of 7.84 in that game, the max score being 10. Callejón scored one goal, hit the woodwork once and had 31 successful passes (of 36 total).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Deportivo Alaves in a game that was won 3-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Granada have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 7 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

It should be noted that a glance at the 13 most recent league fixtures reveals that 11 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the sides scored a goal).

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (20 in 9 games), Granada's attacking play is working. Granada have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only {2 goals}. It's worth mentioning that 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Burgos form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their La Liga 2 travels is 4 wins, 4 draws and 1 defeat. It’s been three wins in a row for Burgos on their travels, an amazing performance which inspire hopes of making this one the fourth consecutive victory.

Burgos might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. SD Eibar proved too strong as Burgos slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Municipal de El Plantío. That loss was their first after three consecutive league matches winning points. Which player has beaten the opponent goalie three matches in a row for the away side? The correct answer is Campos and that is solid stuff! Tejada was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.34. The defender Tejada hit one key pass and won 7 of 8 duels.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Ponferradina at their stadium, the result 2-1.

Burgos are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 4 wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats. From a total of 14 matches.

Look out: 15 of the latest 19 league matches featuring this side have seen only one (or no) team scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in the betting world).

The attacking power of Burgos when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 9 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Burgos's manager Fernández has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only {3 conceded goals}. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
