Rentistas form and stats

2-2-0 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Rentistas, who have the the best goal difference (+9) in Primera Division, in their Primera Division matches away. Things are running smoothly for Rentistas who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 16 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Albion. Rentistas are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played seven in a row without losing.

Rentistas had fun at their own home (Parque Abraham Paladino) last time out, beating Plaza Colonia 2-1. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Torque at their stadium, the result 3-1.
