Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, URT in 5th and Pouso Alegre in 6th place.
- URT have the most conceded goals in the second half (12) in Mineiro 1
It's no vacation for neither URT nor Pouso Alegre 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.
URT form and stats
URT have played 6 Mineiro 1 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-1-2 (wins-draws-losses).
The spoils were shared in URT's previous game, also at home. Visiting Athletic Club travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. Ahead of that match, URT lost 0-5 at home to America Mineiro.
This is expected to be a close game, with URT perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with URT as a small favourite), we find seven games. URT has won three of these, drawn three and lost one.
URT are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 6 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 9 goals have been conceded.
Pouso Alegre form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Pouso Alegre so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-3 (win-draw-lose).
Alegre aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 225 league minutes without a goal. Paulo Henrique was the last player to find the net.
Alegre's last game was the home draw against Caldense (after extra-time, 6-5 on penalties) (0-0). Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Tombense's place.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Pouso Alegre playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were one Alegre win, one draw and zero defeats.
The attacking power of Alegre when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. 7 goals have been conceded by Pouso Alegre in these games.
