Sampaio Corrêa form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Maranhense, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 3 wins, 6 draws and 10 defeats from 19 matches.

This game can not go any worse than the previous one, the home loss versus Nautico with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

Before that, Sampaio Corrêa secured a home win against Pinheiro with the score 4-0.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Sampaio Corrêa manager Brigatti as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Ceara.

Sampaio Corrêa have the goal stats of 2-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Data for the former four meetings featuring these two teams are: one win for Iape, one draw and two wins for Sampaio Corrêa. Over 2,5 goals: zero times; under 2,5 goals: four 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.
