Isidro Metapán and Once Deportivo Set for Primera División Clash

METAPÁN, El Salvador (Interstat) — Isidro Metapán will host Once Deportivo on Tuesday in a Salvadoran Primera División match at Estadio Jorge Calero Suárez.

The matchup pits a Metapán side seeking consistency against a Once Deportivo team looking to rebound from a recent defeat. According to Interstat’s ELO system, the home side enters with a 57.80 percent probability to win. However, the same outlet’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw.

Isidro Metapán (8-2-5) last played on Sept. 20, falling 3-2 to FAS. That result snapped a modest two-game winning streak. Their form has been mixed, with three wins, two draws and two losses in their last seven league matches dating to early August. The club has shown potency at home earlier in the season, including a 2-0 victory over Alianza on Aug. 9.

Once Deportivo last took the pitch on May 3, 2025, suffering a 2-0 home loss to Alianza. The lengthy gap since their last official match adds an element of uncertainty to their current form and fitness.

The game is organized by the ESA (El Salvador Football Association) as part of the Primera División season. Estadio Jorge Calero Suárez is expected to host a limited-capacity crowd in line with local health protocols.

Tuesday’s contest is the first meeting between the clubs this season. A win for Metapán would bolster their position in the league table, while Once Deportivo aims to start a new campaign segment with a positive road result.

Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. local time (0100 GMT Wednesday).
