The number of clean sheets, or matches a team has without conceding a single goal, in a competition is a strong indicator of how well their defence is playing. The more times a team can completely keep their opponents from scoring, the more likely it is the team’s actual ability rather than just random chance.

We keep track of all the clean sheet information here, and these are the stats for CD Lugo vs Sporting Gijón:

  • CD Lugo has played 42 matches and kept opponents from scoring a single goal in 13 of them. In other words, they have kept a clean sheet in 31% of their matches.
  • In 21 home matches in the Segunda Division, CD Lugo has had 7 matches without conceding a goal. Sporting Gijón has played 42 matches and has shut out opponents on 19 occasions. That means they have held clean sheets in 45% of their matches.
  • In 21 home matches played in the Segunda División, Sporting Gijón has had 11 matches without conceding a single goal. And away from home, they have a 52% clean sheet rate as the visiting side.

If both clubs have a high rate of keeping clean sheets, then there’s a decent chance of seeing a low-scoring battle between two strong defensive clubs. But for matches between clubs with low rates of clean sheets, then it’s fair to expect a goal or two.
