ASSU form and stats

It's not happening yet for ASSU on their Potiguar travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different?

ASSU had fun at their own home (Estádio Desembargador José Vasconcelos da Rocha) last time out, beating Potiguar Mossoró 3-0.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Forca e Luz wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Potiguar trip to Santa Cruz de Natal RN.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, ASSU has managed 1 goal and let in 5 from 2 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.
