Sud América form and stats

Sud América have collected 4 points from their Primera Division home games so far after 1-1-2. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Sud América, their manager C. Biaggio and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

América are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Plaza Colonia. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at M. Camarda for missing a penalty kick versus Plaza Colonia in the 78th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

In the preceding match a 3-1 victory visiting Deportivo Maldonado.

This is expected to be a close game, with Sud América perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with América as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Sud América has won five of these, drawn three and lost three.

The América fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 7 goals have been conceded.

Fénix form and stats

2 wins, 0 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Fénix, who have the most conceded goals (19) in Primera Division, playing as the away team in the Primera Division this season.

The supporters enjoyed Fénix's previous game versus Progreso (placed 13th), a Primera Division 2-1 win played at home. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. Pallas Martínez when F. Estoyanoff scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 76th minute.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Cerro Largo at their stadium, the result 2-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Fénix playing away and similar expectations, we found 20 relevant matches. Results were nine Fénix wins, three draws and eight defeats.

Fénix are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 8 times in 5 away games so far. The Fénix manager J. Pallas Martínez has some worries about the defense as 11 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head
