Leganés form and stats

Leganés's first La Liga 2 home game here at Estadio Municipal de Butarque ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 9 draws and 5 defeats from 21 matches. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Leganés to get some points in this home game.

Garcia was the last player to score a league goal for Leganés and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Leganés haven't scored in 202 minutes.

In their previous game, the manager Barkaiztegui led his Leganés to a defeat away at Lugo. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Municipal de Butarque. Midfielder Pardo was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.85 (out of ten) in that game. Pardo hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 48 successful passes (of 57 total).

Heartbreak before that as Leganés lost 0-1 at Real Oviedo's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Leganés perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Leganés as a small favourite), we find 5 games. Leganés has won 1 of these, drawn 1 and lost 3.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Leganés at home in the league. 1 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
