This match features two teams living in the basement of the La Liga 2, Lugo holding 15th place and Sabadell lying 21st. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

Insights:
  • Sabadell have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Sabadell have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

The last three games played by Lugo, regardless of arena, have all ended draws.

Sabadell form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Sabadell so far with only 15 points returning home. The records show 4-3-8 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Sabadell are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Sabadell's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Sporting Gijón that finished 1-1. A 1-2 defeat away at Castellón before that.

A quick return to home after this game, as Sabadell are hosting Girona in the La Liga 2 only three days away.

The attacking power of Sabadell when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 15 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Sabadell have seen the ball go into their own net 19 times on the road.
