Burgos form and stats

There's been little loot from Burgos's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 11 away games in the La Liga 2. Burgos only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws.

Burgos's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Amorebieta that finished 2-2. Drawing 2-2 against Amorebieta after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Calero Fernández needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Attacker García got a player rating of 7.82 in the game. "Man of the match" García signed up for two assists and hit two key passes.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Girona wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Burgos as they have only managed to score 7 times from 11 away games in the league. Burgos have conceded 17 goals in these games.
