Goiás have some work to do from their 18th place, and the job begins versus São Paulo. Read more!
- Goiás have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- São Paulo have yet to win a game away.
São Paulo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
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!
Goiás form and stats
The story so far in the Serie A for Goiás at their home stadium (Estádio de Hailé Pinheiro) is 3 wins, 6 draws and 4 defeats.
The Goiás fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Estádio de Hailé Pinheiro: A 4-6 defeat against Bahia (placed 16th). As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Magno, who usually plays near the opponent's goal, was the best performer for the side in that game, earning a rating of 8.15 (out of 10). Magno scored one goal, served one assist and hit two key passes.
Preceding that game was the away draw at Botafogo that finished 1-1.Not much happening? In this team's last 12 league matches, 11 have seen less than three goals (under 2.5).
There will be little rest for Goiás after this match as they are travelling to Cuiaba for a Serie A game in only three days.
Goiás has scored 15 league goals at home this season, in 13 matches. Goiás have conceded 20 from these games.
São Paulo form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for São Paulo so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 0-6-6 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Paulo have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road.
São Paulo are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Vasco da Gama (placed 17th). Midfielder Maia was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.62. Maia hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 61 successful passes (of 69 total).
That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Corinthians.A quick return to home after this game, as São Paulo are hosting Gremio in the Serie A only three days away.
The visitors have scored 8 goals from 12 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Paulo have seen the ball go into their own net 14 times on the road.
