Their attacking output has been modest, averaging just 0.8 goals per game in that span-a statistic reflected in their trend of low-scoring affairs, with the side netting under 1.5 goals in 12 of their last 14 fixtures. Defensively, Palestino haven’t been convincing either, conceding an average of 1.4 goals per game across those 10 matches.
