São José EC are returning here after visiting Olímpia and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Barcos and Bonet scored the goal(s).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how José have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won five times, drawn three and lost one.

The manager Vieira will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Bandeirante SP in only three days.

A decent goal production from São José EC in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 6 league matches.

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.
