Portuguesa are welcoming Gran Valencia for another important game after their 0-1 result against Trujillanos.
Portuguesa form and stats
Portuguesa must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three Primera Division games here at Estadio Rafael Agustín Tovar. Two draws in a row at home now for Portuguesa.
The fans are hoping that Portuguesa will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Primera Division game against Trujillanos. In the match before that, Portuguesa hosted Zulia and drew the game 2-2.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Portuguesa as they are travelling to their away game against Aragua in the Primera Division. That match is four days after this one.
Portuguesa has scored 3 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. Portuguesa are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Rafael Agustín Tovar in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 2 from 3 matches.
Gran Valencia form and stats
0 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Gran Valencia, who have the the worst goal difference (-6) in Primera Division, playing as the away team in the Primera Division this season. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Valencia, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Yaracuyanos game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Valencia's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Valencia play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Monagas. Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Mineros de Guayana.
A quick return to home after this game, as Gran Valencia are hosting Caracas in the Primera Division only four days away.
Valencia are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 4 away games. Gran Valencia have conceded 6 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last two meetings: zero - one - one (Portuguesa wins - draws - Gran Valencia wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.Top Goalscorers
