Rentistas form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Rentistas, who have the most scored goals (16) in Primera Division, have to build on here at Complejo Deportivo Rentistas in the Primera Division. Rentistas has a nice streak going on as they have played 15 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Albion defeat 336 days ago. Rentistas have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

It's back home for Rentistas, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Torque away with the result 3-1. C. Olivera, M. Lemos and S. Rodríguez found the net in that victory. 2-2 away at Penarol before that.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Primera Division game versus Boston River in only one day. This game is also played here at Complejo Deportivo Rentistas.

A decent goal production from Rentistas in their home games so far, with 7 goals from 4 league matches. Defensively Rentistas have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (2 in 4 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Plaza Colonia form and stats

As the visiting team in Primera Division matches, Plaza Colonia have produced an overall stat of 1-2-2 so far.

The manager V. Rosa Castro was unhappy after their last game, a Primera Division match played at their home ground Estadio Profesor Alberto Suppici. Colonia suffered a 1-2 loss to Deportivo Maldonado (placed 8th). Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Boston River that ended 0-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Plaza Colonia playing away and similar expectations, we found four relevant matches. Results were two Plaza Colonia wins, one draw and one defeat.

After this away game Colonia return home for a Primera Division game against Progreso. That game is only one sleeps after this.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Colonia as they have only managed to score 3 times from 5 away games in the league. Colonia are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 4 times in 5 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: seven wins for Rentistas, one draw and two wins for Plaza Colonia. Over 2,5 goals: seven times; under 2,5 goals: three games.
