Competition: Brazil Piauiense
Date: Wed 20.March
Match begins: 23:00 (UTC)
Venue: Estádio Municipal Lindolfo Monteiro

1st position in the Piauiense table for Ríver so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 3rd-placed Altos visits Estádio Municipal Lindolfo Monteiro.

Altos could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Copa do Nordeste game only four sleeps ago. That game, against Botafogo PB, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Altos. That match was played in the comfort of their own home stadium, hosting Botafogo PB. There's been little rest and some travel, but Altos will do their best.
