Torque form and stats

Torque have six points from their first three away games in the Primera Division, meaning two victories and a loss. Torque love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.

Torque might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Deportivo Maldonado proved too strong as Torque slumped to a 2-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Complejo Daniel Marsicano. Torque were so close to getting something from the game against Deportivo Maldonado, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal six minutes into overtime.

A loss against Penarol was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Torque find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. It's not easy to score on Torque as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
