The Rentistas manager Moreno and his crew return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Penarol (placed 9th). A disappointing finish for Rentistas in their match versus Penarol as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score.

Prior to that, an away loss at Deportivo Maldonado.

Rentistas 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 Rentistas defense is not exactly impregnable. 7 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
