Game week two of the Mineiro 1 season and the teams have had a few days to digest the first match. Here's the Villa Nova - América Mineiro preview:
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Villa Nova and América Mineiro.
Villa Nova form and stats
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 195 minutes without scoring a league goal. Elias was the last player to find the net.
The fans are hoping that Villa Nova will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Mineiro 1 game against CAP Patrocinense (placed 1st). Heartbreak before that as Villa Nova lost 0-2 at Boa's place.
The manager E. Rodrigues de Ávila will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Cruzeiro in only four days.
Last season, Villa Nova's league statistics were 3 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses, resulting in a 9th position in the Mineiro 1. Over these eleven matches they scored 9 goals and conceded 21. Playing at home last season Villa Nova managed 3-1-2 (win-draw-lost) with 6 goals and 9 conceded.
América Mineiro form and stats
Having won their last three away games América Mineiro has no reason to fear anyone.
There were no winners in América Mineiro's previous match, a Mineiro 1 home game that ended 2-2 vs Caldense (placed 6th). Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Sao Bento.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Mineiro 1 trip to Tupynambas.
Let's have a look at how América Mineiro performed last season in the Serie B: They landed a 5th position in the league table after playing out 17 victories, 10 draws and 11 defeats. In total they scored 42 and conceded 34 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 8 - drew 6 and lost 5 with 19/13 goals scored/conceded.
Head 2 Head
Villa Nova-América Mineiro H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Villa Nova 2 wins, América Mineiro 3 wins, 5 draws. 5 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
