Deportivo Maldonado form and stats

1-2-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Primera Division numbers at home for Deportivo Maldonado so far this season.

A good away victory last time out for Maldonado, who won 3-2 against Torque (placed 7th). A late climax in the match against Torque as the winning goal came six minutes into overtime; scored by M. Aguirregaray.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Progreso that ended 1-1.

Maldonado are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 4 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Maldonado defense is not exactly impregnable. 6 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Sud América form and stats

As the visiting team in Primera Division matches, Sud América, who have the the worst goal difference (-6) away in Primera Division, have produced an overall stat of 1-0-3 so far. It's looking increasingly bleak for América who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Cerrito was the last time a defeat was avoided.

Sud América might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Progreso proved too strong as Sud América slumped to a 2-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Parque Palermo. As you can tell from the result, the match against Progreso was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

A 1-2 defeat away at Cerro Largo before that.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from América's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 4 matches. América have conceded 8 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Deportivo Maldonado won three, Sud América won three and four draws. five games with over 2,5 goals, five matches with two goals or less.
