CRB form and stats

CRB has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager M. Ribeiro Cabo and the players.

The CRB fans got no joy from their last match, a Alagoano game also here at Estádio Rei Pelé: A 0-1 defeat against Murici. A Copa do Nordeste defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Imperatriz.

CRB are traveling soon after this match as the Alagoano match at CSE awaits in three days.

Last season, CRB's league statistics were 0 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses, resulting in a 4th position in the Alagoano. Over these zero matches they scored 0 goals and conceded 0. Playing at home last season CRB managed 0-0-0 (win-draw-lost) with 0 goals and 0 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.
