After the first set of fixtures it's Resende - Nova Iguaçu 0-1 in points. Who will prevail in this second Carioca Serie A game of the season?
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Resende and Nova Iguaçu.
Resende form and stats
The season before, Resende's league results were 3 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses, providing 10th place in the Carioca Serie A. Over these eleven matches they scored 11 goals and gave away 21. Performing at home in the previous season Resende produced 2-0-3 (win-draw-lost) with 5 goals and 9 conceded.
No payout for Resende in their previous match, an away game at Madureira that ended in defeat 0-1.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Portuguesa RJ are coming to town in four days.
Nova Iguaçu form and stats
Let's have a look at how Nova Iguaçu performed last season in the Carioca Serie A: They landed a 7th position in the league table after playing out 4 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. In total they scored 16 and conceded 15 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 3 - drew 0 and lost 3 with 9/9 goals scored/conceded. One match played away so far in the Carioca Serie A for Nova Iguaçu and it was a tie. Last season the statistics for their away games were 3 wins, 0 draws and 3 losses from 6 games.
Iguaçu have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 275 minutes ago. Canela was the goal scorer.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Audax Rio (placed 7th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 0-0.
Nova Iguaçu have another game that requires travelling in just three nights, a Carioca Serie A match against Vasco da Gama. A gruelling diary for the visitors!
It's early days yet, but Nova Iguaçu has scored 0 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
Head 2 Head
