The Potiguar season is young and ASSU, who have the fewest points (1) away in Potiguar, have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far.

ASSU has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Forca e Luz for a Potiguar game that ended a draw (0-0).
