La Luz form and stats

La Luz's previous game was their home loss versus Penarol (3-4). As you can tell from the result, the match against Penarol was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today? La Luz were so close to getting something from the game against Penarol, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal eight minutes into overtime.

Preceding that, the 1-3 home loss versus Wanderers.
