Leganés form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the La Liga this season. Leganés have only managed 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses from their games here at Estadio Municipal de Butarque.

Leganés travelled for their previous game, a trip to Mallorca that ended 1-1. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Barcelona.

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 eleven games. Leganés has won five of these, drawn four and lost two.

Leganés aren't scoring a lot here at Estadio Municipal de Butarque in the league, with only 14 goals from 15 games. Leganés's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 21 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Granada form and stats

There's been little loot from Granada's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 15 away games in the La Liga. Granada only have 3 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 4 draws. Visiting Granada has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Home advantage was not enough for Granada in their previous game, as they lost their La Liga-match, hosting Villarreal, 0-1. A 2-2 draw at Real Betis's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Granada playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were zero Granada wins, five draws and two defeats.

The visiting Granada have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 19 goals from 15 games. Granada struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 26 goals conceded from these games.
