Boston River form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Boston River so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose). Boston has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

Boston River's previous game was their home loss versus Penarol (2-5). As you can tell from the result, the match against Penarol was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

Preceding that game was the away victory against Rentistas with the score of 2-1.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 11 goals have been conceded by Boston in these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
