Flamengo form and stats

As mentioned below, Flamengo are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 2 Carioca Serie A games.

Flamengo travelled for their previous game, a trip to Madureira that ended 0-0.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Portuguesa RJ in a game that was won 4-1.

It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Flamengo have performed as huge favourites like they are today: 4 games found in the database showing 3 Flamengo wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

There will be little rest for Flamengo after this match as they are travelling to Bangu for a Carioca Serie A game in only three days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Flamengo at home in the league. 5 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Nova Iguaçu form and stats

0-0-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Nova Iguaçu in their Carioca Serie A matches away.

Nova Iguaçu are looking to quickly end their 304 minutes long goal drought in the Carioca Serie A.

Iguaçu are travelling again after losing away to Fluminense in their previous match (0-1).

Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Volta Redonda.

The schedule is very tough for Nova Iguaçu now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Carioca Serie A game at Audax Rio is waiting in only four days.

{0 goals} so far away for Nova Iguaçu, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.

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.
