It's still early in the Potiguar season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the América RN - ABC preview!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for América RN and ABC.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.

Happy days for América RN in their previous game, a Potiguar match away at Palmeira (placed 8th) that ended with a 3-0 victory. Before that match, a win away at Globo.

ABC form and stats
A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Potiguar, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 2 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats from 9 matches. Momentum is building for ABC in their away games, having won their two previous outings.
The supporters enjoyed ABC's previous game versus Santa Cruz de Natal RN (placed 3rd), a Potiguar 1-0 win played at home. A draw for ABC before that, at their own venue hosting Potiguar Mossoró (2-2).
The schedule is very tough for ABC now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Copa do Nordeste game at Confianca is waiting in only three days.
ABC have the goal stats of 1-0 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
Head 2 Head
