Internacional have 38 points performing as the host team. América Mineiro have 19 points using the away locker rooms. Will this be a home win?

Insights:
  • Internacional have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • América Mineiro is in the worst form (0-2-4)

América Mineiro have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It's no vacation for neither Internacional nor América Mineiro as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Internacional form and stats

Internacional have played 15 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-3-5 (wins-draws-losses).

Internacional's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 3-4 versus Coritiba (placed 19th). 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? Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Valencia for missing a penalty kick versus Coritiba in the 90th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome. Midfield player Patrick got a match rating of 8.31 in that game, the max score being 10. Patrick scored one goal, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 5 of 5 times and had 33 successful passes (of 41 total).

In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Vasco da Gama.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Internacional as they are travelling to their away game against Cruzeiro in the Serie A. That match is four days after this one.

A decent goal production from Internacional in their home games so far, with 25 goals from 15 league matches. It's worth mentioning that 13 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 19 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 6 points returning home. The records show 0-6-9 (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 15 consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Home advantage was not enough for América Mineiro in their previous game as they lost hosting Grêmio, 3-4. A stark raving crazy fixture with heaps of goals last time out for América Mineiro, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that game, will this match be as refreshing? It's probably bad news for América that their goalie Jory pulled off seven saves in the Grêmio fixture, but still were unable to save them from a beating. The attacker Benítez got a match rating of 8.32 in that game. Benítez signed up for two assists, hit four key passes and had 25 successful passes (of 29 total).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Athletico PR wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.

Observe! Both sides have scored goal(s) in 17 of this club's latest 21 league fixtures.

After this away game América Mineiro return home for a Serie A game against Atletico Mineiro. That game is only three sleeps after this.

The visiting América have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 19 goals from 15 games. For América Mineiro, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
