A new Paulista A2 season is about to begin and this is the first proper game for Taubaté and São Bento. Bring it on!

São Bento could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Serie C game only three sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Londrina. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

São Bento form and stats

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Bento manager E. Vieira as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Tombense.

The last season was not a pleasant experience for São Bento as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 0 victories from five games, relegation was a fact. São Bento's manager E. Vieira are hoping to lead the team right back to Serie C at the first attempt.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Taubaté - São Bento 1-1. Numbers for the last three meetings between these two teams are: zero wins for Taubaté, one draw and two wins for São Bento. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: one game.

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.
