It's still early in the Copa do Nordeste season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Frei Paulistano - América RN preview!

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Potiguar. That game, against ASSU, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for América RN.

Frei Paulistano form and stats

Two Copa do Nordeste home games so far for Frei Paulistano, who are yet to win here at Estádio Municipal Frei Paulo. Only 0 points so far. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Frei Paulistano, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

The Frei Paulistano fans got no joy from their last match, a Sergipano game also here at Estádio Municipal Frei Paulo: A 1-2 defeat against Sergipe. A Copa do Nordeste defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Santa Cruz.

Frei Paulistano are traveling soon after this match as the Sergipano match at Sergipe awaits in three days.

América RN form and stats

Things could have gone better for América RN in their Copa do Nordeste away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to ASSU in their previous outing. The Potiguar match ended in a draw 1-1. Before that one, a nice away victory 4-0 at Santa Cruz de Natal RN.

It's early days yet, but América RN has scored 4 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

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.
