1887

On Saturday night, Chinandega host Deportivo Ocotal in the Nicaraguan Primera Division, as the home side look to move back into those all-important top six spots in the top-flight.

The hosts have fallen out of the top six in recent weeks after a poor run of league form. They are now two points adrift of Juventus Managua, who occupy seventh place in the table.

Chinandega’s recent form has been worrying, as a 2-0 defeat at Real Madriz last time out means that they have now lost three straight league matches, while also conceding at least two goals in each defeat. In fact, they have now lost five of their last seven games in the Nicaraguan top-flight.

Home soil has not proven much of an advantage for Chinandega of late, as they have lost three of their last five home games in the Primera Division, winning just twice in the process.

Their recent home matches in the top-flight have been relatively low-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four matches on home soil.

Deportivo Ocotal are currently ninth place in the Primera Division table, seven points off the top six in the table. Their recent form has been poor in the league, as they have won just once in their last eight matches, suffering six defeats in the process.

A surprise 1-0 win at Juventus Managua last time out ended a seven-game winless run for the visitors in the Nicaraguan top-flight. The game followed a familiar low-scoring trend for Deportivo Ocotal of late, as nine of their last 11 matches have produced under 2.5 goals.

The win over Juventus Managua also ended an eight-game winless run on their travels in the Primera Division for the visitors.

Forebet predicts that Chinandega will record a victory in a high-scoring game to aid their chances of finishing in the top-six this season.
