Gerena form and stats

Gerena have collected 18 points from their Tercera - Group 10 home games so far after 5-3-3. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Gerena with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Córdoba II game, 42 days ago, have they avoided a loss. The Gerena manager D. Román Rubio might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

In their previous game, the manager D. Román Rubio led his Gerena to a defeat in the Tercera - Group 10 match away at Sevilla III. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio José Juan Romero. Ahead of that match, Gerena lost 1-2 at home to Conil.

Gerena are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 11 games. From these home matches, Gerena have conceded only 10 goals.
