Leganés form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Estadio Municipal de Butarque as Leganés have scored 21 goals to get 37 points from 16 games. The overall stats in the La Liga 2 are 12-1-3 (wins-draws-losses).

Leganés are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Mallorca. A 1-1 draw away before that, with Almeria the opponent.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Leganés matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, zero draws and zero defeats (from two games).

Leganés are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 16 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Leganés have only conceded 10 from their league home games.
