Uberlândia form and stats

When playing at home in the Mineiro 2, Uberlândia have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 6 games. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Estádio Municipal João Havelange.

Uberlândia faced defeat in their previous match, away at URT (0-2). Up until that game this club had gone six consecutive league meetings without a defeat.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Boa in a game that was won 1-0.

Low-scoring affair? Looking at this club's last 18 league matches, 14 have seen zero, one or two goals.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Aymorés are coming to town in four days.

A decent goal production from Uberlândia in their home games so far, with 10 goals from 6 league matches.

Itabirito form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Itabirito, who have the most clean sheets (9) in Mineiro 2, playing as the away team in the Mineiro 2 this season.

It's the second away game in a row for Itabirito, but there's smiles all around after the 4-3 victory versus Aymorés last time out. As you can tell from the result, the match against Aymorés was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today? Late drama in the previous game, when Popov scored the winning goal two minutes into stoppage time to defeat Aymorés.

Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against URT.

Stats flash: 10 of the last 13 league games involving this team have had only one (or no) team scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting words).

A new game in only three days for Itabirito, the Mineiro 2 home match versus Betim. Busy days.

Itabirito have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.
