Manaus form and stats

Manaus have played three Amazonense home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper not having conceded a league goal in 187 minutes.

The Manaus crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Amazonas here at Arena da Amazônia. Before that defeat this club had gone six consecutive league meetings without a defeat.

Ahead of that game, a home defeat in the Copa Verde against Princesa Solimoes. The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Manaus have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 8 matches with the results: Won 1, drawn 5 and lost 2.

Sports gamblers who prefer looking for low-scoring games might like knowing that this club have played 7 league rounds in a row with zero, one or two goals (under 2.5).

Early season league goal statistics from Manaus's 3 home games: {3 goals}, 3 conceded.

There are 26 state football leagues in Brazil. Because of long distances in Brazil a very competitive football culture developed within each state. 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.
