Alcoyano form and stats

As the visiting team in Primera Division RFEF: Group 2 matches, Alcoyano have produced an overall stat of 3-3-2 so far.

Alcoyano are looking to quickly end their 188 minutes long goal drought in the Primera Division RFEF: Group 2.

There were no winners in Alcoyano's previous match, a Copa Del Rey home game that ended 3-3 vs Levante (after extra-time, 3-1 on penalties). Drawing 3-3 against Levante (after extra-time, 3-1 on penalties) after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-1. Their manager Parras Campello needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. As you can tell from the result, the match against Levante (after extra-time, 3-1 on penalties) was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today? Blanco was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 8.95. The defender Blanco scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and won 6 of 10 duels.

A loss against Llagostera-Costa Brava was the result prior to that, in a Primera Division RFEF: Group 2 home game.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Alcoyano in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Alcoyano, three draws and four defeats.

Alcoyano have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 8 league away games 10 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, Alcoyano have seen the ball go into their own net 9 times on the road.
