The visiting Nacional side should be favourites in this visit to Fénix, as the away team holds a 5 point advantage from their eight league games this season.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
Fénix form and stats
1-1-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Primera Division numbers at home for Fénix, who have the most scored goals (14) in Primera Division, so far this season.
Fénix are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Danubio. Ahead of that match, Fénix won a home game hosting Defensor Sporting (5-0).
The match schedule is unforgiving for Fénix as they have a new game in only one day, a Primera Division match thankfully also at home. River Plate are visiting.
Goals decide football matches and Fénix are scoring many of them at home; 7 on target from 3 league matches. Fénix have conceded 4 in these home matches.
Nacional form and stats
The visitors are W1-D2-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Primera Division.
P. García and T. Vecino scored in Nacional's previous match, the home game against Progreso that ended 2-1. Before that, Nacional travelled to Plaza Colonia and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Rentistas in just one day.
Nacional are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 5 away goals from 4 games (in the league). Nacional's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Fénix won zero, Nacional won nine and one draw. four games with over 2,5 goals, six matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
