Boston River form and stats

Boston River have played 7 Primera Division games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-2-3 (wins-draws-losses). Game days at Estadio Municipal Parque Artigas have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Boston River as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

In their previous game, the manager I. Ithurralde Sáez led his Boston River to a defeat in the Primera Division match away at Torque. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Municipal Parque Artigas. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Before that game, the home loss against Peñarol with the scoreline 2-5.

Boston River has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 7 matches. On the other hand, Boston have conceded 8 goals.

Villa Española form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Villa Española so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-5 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 13 away games in a row.

Española's previous game was their home loss versus Fénix (1-2).

Prior to that match, the Española manager J. Mozzo Valdéz faced defeat when travelling to Plaza Colonia and losing 0-4.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Villa Española as they have only managed to score 5 times from 7 away games in the league. The Española manager J. Mozzo Valdéz has some worries about the defense as 15 goals have been conceded in these travels.
