Very important shoot-out in the "wrong" end of the Paulista A3, with both Votuporanguense and Desportivo Brasil going through more concern than pleasure. This fixture is a real "six-pointer" with the host team at 11th and the visiting team in 14th spot.

Insights:
  • Votuporanguense have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Desportivo Brasil have yet to win a game away.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Votuporanguense and Desportivo Brasil.

Votuporanguense form and stats

When playing at home in the Paulista A3, Votuporanguense have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 6 games. When Votuporanguense hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Rio Preto, Sertãozinho, Nacional SP, Votuporanguense and Olímpia), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Votuporanguense, who played 1-1 against Sertãozinho. That match was also played at this venue (Estádio Municipal Dr. Plínio Marin).

Preceding that game was the away draw at Comercial that finished 1-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Votuporanguense have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won four times, drawn one and lost four.

There will be little rest for Votuporanguense after this match as they are travelling to Olímpia for a Paulista A3 game in only three days.

Votuporanguense has scored 8 league goals at home this season, in 6 matches. Votuporanguense are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estádio Municipal Dr. Plínio Marin in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 4 from 6 matches.

Desportivo Brasil form and stats

There's been little loot from Desportivo Brasil's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 6 away games in the Paulista A3. Desportivo Brasil only have 0 wins to counter their 3 defeats and 3 draws.

Desportivo has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Rio Preto for a 2-2 draw.

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Bandeirante SP.

We have checked recent matches where Desportivo Brasil have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those four games were zero victories, two draws and two defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Desportivo Brasil are hosting Nacional SP in the Paulista A3 only three days away.

The attacking power of Desportivo Brasil when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. Desportivo have conceded 9 goals in these games.

Therefore, Brazil remain one of the few countries who still run state championships alongside the national ones. Most of them run from January to May, outside the national season.
