Inter Santa Maria form and stats

The Gaucho 2 season is young and Inter Santa Maria have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.

There might be some fixture complaints from Inter Santa Maria as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 1-2 against Santa Cruz RS.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Guarany de Bage wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Inter Santa Maria playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 0 away wins, 3 draws and 1 home win.

{1 goals} so far away for Inter Santa Maria, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.

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.
