Atletico Nublense - Has Lost Three Consecutive Matches (LLLWL)

Going in the matchup, Atletico Nublense is coming off a defeat against Flamengo (2-0) in the Copa Libertadores fixture. Against Flamengo, Nublense failed to even maintain the momentum and was taken to the cleaners. Jorge Henriquez, Juan Cordova, and Branco Provoste failed to score. Under the command of Jaime Garcia, Atletico Nublense will be looking to maintain discipline and defeat Audax at home. From the last five matches played, Nublense has managed to score a goal or two in just three matches. Hence, inconsistent scoring is also a problem for the home side. With just 4 goals scored in the last five, Nublense averages 0.80 goals per game. Against the scoring average, the conceding average is 2.00 goals (10 goals in the last 5 matches). Hence, in recent fixtures, Nublense has failed to score and winning competitively.
