The Carioca U20 league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. América RJ U20 and Macaé U20 are placed 3rd and 7th respectively.
It's no vacation for neither América nor Macaé U20 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.
