There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Rampla Juniors leading Atenas by 6 points.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Rampla Juniors form and stats

Rampla Juniors must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Segunda Division games here at Estadio Charrúa. Two home wins in a row for Juniors bring valid hopes of a third.

A strong away win for Juniors against Villa Espanola the last match, as D. Martiñones and N. Fernández were on target. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Rocha in a game that was won 3-1.

There will be little rest for Juniors after this match as they are travelling to Central Espanol for a Segunda Division game in only four days.

Atenas form and stats

The Segunda Division season is young and Atenas, who have the most conceded goals (12) in Segunda Division, have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.

Atenas have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 185 minutes ago. C. Ojeda was the goal scorer.

The manager D. Castellanos was unhappy after their last game, a Segunda Division match played at their home ground Estadio Atenas. Atenas suffered a 0-1 loss to Central Espanol (placed 11th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Sud America wasn't a success with a 0-6 loss.

After this away game Atenas return home for a Segunda Division game against Villa Teresa. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Atenas have scored 3 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. Atenas can't defend away. 9 goals have been scored by the opposition in 3 matches, an average of more than three per game.
