Potiguar Mossoró form and stats
Things could have gone better for Potiguar Mossoró in their Potiguar away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right. Potiguar seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Two away games in a row for Potiguar, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-5 versus Forca e Luz in the Potiguar. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Globo wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.
Potiguar lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting America RN in just three days.
Potiguar find the net regularly in their away games. 3 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. The Potiguar defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 9 goals in their away games.
