Confiança contest Sousa for honour and victory.
The hosts Confiança saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Serie B. Thankfully the previous game, versus Avai, was also a home game here at Estádio Estadual Lourival Baptista. The away team is better rested.
Confiança form and stats
Disaster struck Confiança last season as they could not defend their status as a Serie B team. With 16 defeats from 30 games, and only 7 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Confiança are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W5 D2 L8.
The manager L. de Souza Lopes will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Guarani in only three days.
Sousa form and stats
Let's have a look at how Sousa performed last season in the Copa do Nordeste: They landed a 5th position in the league table after playing out 4 victories, 4 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 16 and conceded 18 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 0 - drew 2 and lost 5 with 2/13 goals scored/conceded.
