Only a win will satisfy the Lucena supporters in this Estadio Ciudad de Lucena clash with Xerez, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Tercera - Group 10 table.
It's no vacation for neither Lucena nor Xerez as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Xerez's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Xerez have performed like this: Played 18 matches resulting in 2 wins, 3 draws and 13 defeats with the goal stats 10-29 (scored/conceded).
Lucena form and stats
Home games in the Tercera - Group 10 have been a walk in the park for Lucena so far, with 32 points won from 12 matches; 10 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses.
The fans are hoping that Lucena will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Tercera - Group 10 game against Utrera (placed 6th). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Los Barrios that ended 1-1.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Lucena as they are travelling to their away game against Lebrijana in the Tercera - Group 10. That match is four days after this one.
The Lucena manager D. Carrasco Bellido has got the team scoring with 25 from 12 home games in the league. From these home matches, Lucena have conceded only 7 goals.
Xerez form and stats

Bitter travels for Xerez as they have lost six games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Ecija match.
Xerez's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Sevilla III that finished 1-1. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Conil wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
A quick return to home after this game, as Xerez are hosting Coria CF in the Tercera - Group 10 only four days away.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Xerez as they have only managed to score 10 times from 13 away games in the league. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Xerez have conceded 22 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
