União RS form and stats

União RS have collected 6 points from their Gaucho 2 home games so far after 2-0-2. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for União with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Veranópolis game, 34 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

The União RS fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Arena do União Frederiquense: A 2-3 defeat against Monsoon (placed 1st).

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Brasil Farroupilha (0-3).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how União have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 5 games) they have won 3 times, drawn 1 and lost 1.

União RS are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 4 games. On the other hand, União have conceded 5 goals.

Veranópolis form and stats

The visitors, who have the most conceded goals (14) in Gaucho 2, are W1-D0-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Gaucho 2. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Veranópolis are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Veranópolis are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the game against Gloria (placed 6th). Eureka; their first three points in the league after seven rounds not winning.

Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Monsoon's place.

Veranópolis are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 0 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of 6 matches.

The attacking power of Veranópolis when travelling is not overwhelming with 3 goals scored from 4 league matches away. Veranópolis have conceded 5 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Veranópolis - União 3-4 was the scoreline in these squads' previous head-to-head fixture, played this season. Head-2-head stats last five meetings: one - one - three (União RS wins - draws - Veranópolis wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.

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.
