Portuguesa hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 15 points and a 17th position in the Primera Division table. Visiting Monagas holds 11th place with 23 pts.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Portuguesa form and stats

With 1 win, 5 draws and 2 defeats from their home games, Portuguesa are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Portuguesa who hasn’t won a game in their last twelve attempts. Their previous win was against Metropolitanos. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Portuguesa fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Deportivo Anzoategui game long ago, can be stopped today.

Portuguesa drew their last game, 1-1 away at Estudiantes Mérida. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Caracas that ended 1-1.

Portuguesa has scored 9 goals at home this season, in 8 matches. Portuguesa's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 10 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Monagas form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Monagas so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose). Visiting Monagas has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

The manager J. Rey was unhappy after their last game, a Primera Division match played at their home ground Estadio General José Antonio Páez. Monagas suffered a 2-4 loss to Carabobo. Before that, Monagas travelled to Zulia and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Monagas as they have only managed to score 7 times from 8 away games. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Monagas have conceded 14 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
