It's the second attempt for points this league season as Avenida and Lajeadense cross swords at Estádio dos Plátanos.

Avenida form and stats

The previous season, Avenida's league results were 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, ending with 1st spot in the Serie D. In these six matches they scored 6 goals and let in 5. Appearing as the home side in the former season Avenida generated 3-0-0 (win-draw-lost) with 4 goals and 1 conceded. Avenida's first Gaucho 2 home game here at Estádio dos Plátanos ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 3 wins, 0 draws and 0 defeats from 3 matches.

The Avenida crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Lajeadense here at Estádio dos Plátanos.

Prior to that, an away loss at Guarany de Bage.

This is expected to be a close game, with Avenida perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Avenida as a small favourite), we find nine games. Avenida has won three of these, drawn five and lost one.

At Estádio dos Plátanos, Avenida has the goal stats of 0-1 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.

Lajeadense form and stats

Let's have a look at how Lajeadense performed last season in the Gaucho 2: They landed a 13th position in the league table after playing out 2 victories, 4 draws and 7 defeats. In total they scored 9 and conceded 17 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 1 and lost 4 with 5/10 goals scored/conceded. A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Gaucho 2, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 1 win, 1 draw and 4 defeats from 6 matches.

It's the second away game in a row for Lajeadense, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Avenida (placed 7th) last time out.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Uniao RS wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

Lajeadense have the goal stats of 1-0 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

These opponents have fought before this season: Avenida - Lajeadense 0-1. Head-to-head statistics (for the previous seven meetings): Avenida won three games, two matches ended with a draw and Lajeadense got two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / six

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.
