Plaza Colonia form and stats

Only two Primera Division home games for Plaza Colonia so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.

Colonia are returning here after visiting Cerrito in a Primera Division game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. M. Risso and C. Rodríguez scored the goal(s). The victory against Cerrito came after C. Rodríguez's winning goal. The Colonia manager E. Espinel Porley was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 67th minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when C. Rodríguez scored the winning goal four minutes into stoppage time.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Nacional (1-2).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Colonia have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 18 matches with the results: Won nine, drawn three and lost six.

Plaza Colonia has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 2 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Liverpool form and stats

It's gone fairly well in the Primera Division away games so far for Liverpool, who have the most scored goals (17) in Primera Division, with six points collected from three matches.

Liverpool won their last game, 5-0 versus Sud America played at home. As mentioned above, Liverpool was the only team on the pitch versus Sud America in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task. It's hard not to mention Juan Ignacio Ramírez's lethal finishing against Sud America. three goals were a big reason for the important victory.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Progreso with the score of 3-1.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by Liverpool in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Liverpool, three draws and five defeats.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Liverpool alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (9 from 3 played). The Liverpool manager M. Méndez Russo has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Colonia won two games, three matches ended with a draw and Liverpool has five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / seven
