Cuiabá have achieved 3 home wins so far this season, América Mineiro have won 0 away. Which team improves their records in this meeting?

Insights:
  • Cuiabá have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • América Mineiro have the most conceded goals (45) in Serie A

These teams have little in common geographically as América Mineiro have to travel 1500 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Cuiabá form and stats

3-3-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Cuiabá so far this season. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Cuiabá with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Flamengo game, 40 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Deyverson was the last player to score a league goal for Cuiabá and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Cuiabá haven't scored in 370 minutes.

Cuiabá lost their last game at Grêmio (placed 3rd) after a 0-2 scoreline. It's almost unrealistic, but the exact score 0-2 has occurred four times in a row. Augusto (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.44/10. Augusto dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 71 successful passes (of 72 total).

Heartbreak before that as Cuiabá lost 0-2 at Bragantino's place.

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 Cuiabá have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 6 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 1 and lost 0.

It should be noted that a peek at the 12 most recent league games shows that 9 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the teams scored).

Cuiabá has scored 12 league goals at home this season, in 10 matches. 13 goals have been conceded.

América Mineiro form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for América Mineiro so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-7 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved América Mineiro have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road.

América go into this game after a win, the home game against Santos that ended 2-0. Varanda, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.92. Varanda scored one goal and hit three key passes.

A loss, in the Copa Sudamericana away at Fortaleza, earlier. We have checked recent matches where América Mineiro have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 15 games were 5 victories, 5 draws and 5 defeats.

Goal hungry football fans should note that 16 of this club's 21 most recent league matches have ended with at least three goals.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Bragantino in just four days.

América have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 10 league away games 11 goals have been scored. The América Mineiro manager Mancini has some worries about the defense as 25 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Cuiabá and América Mineiro have duelled previously this season: América Mineiro - Cuiabá 1-2. H2H stats regardless of arena (last nine matches): Cuiabá three wins, two draws and América Mineiro four victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
