Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Cuiabá & Ceilândia face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Copa Verde. All the pre-match information is available here!
Ceilândia have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
It's no vacation for neither Cuiabá nor Ceilândia 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.
Cuiabá form and stats
Last season, Cuiabá's Copa Verde journey ended in the quarter-finals.A nice win for Cuiabá last time playing, versus Luverdense. That was also a home game and the match ended 5-0. As mentioned above, Cuiabá "killed" Luverdense in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
Before that game, a loss in the away fixture against São Raimundo RR in the Copa do Brasil.
The manager Vieira will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Cacerense in only three days.
Ceilândia form and stats
It might be tough going out on the road again for Ceilândia, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-3 versus Samambaia.
The fixture before was the Copa do Brasil-battle against Santos, a home defeat (0-1).
The schedule is very tough for Ceilândia now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Brasiliense game at Gama is waiting in only four days.
