The América Mineiro fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio: A 0-3 defeat against Bragantino (placed 8th).

Some goal stats: A review of the 10 latest league games highlights that 8 of them had at least one goal from each side.
The manager Mancini will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Atletico GO in only three days.
The América Mineiro fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.
Palmeiras form and stats
Palmeiras have an excellent away record in the Serie A so far with 4-4-0 from 8 games.
The Palmeiras goalkeeper Weverton Pereira da Silva is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 212 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Palmeiras are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the fixture against Cuiabá (placed 15th). That victory felt nice as this club had gone three league games without winning. Mayke, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 8.05. Mayke hit the woodwork once, hit two key passes and won 7 of 11 duels.
Look out: 9 of the last 12 league games involving this club have ended with only one (or no) team scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting words).
A quick return to home after this game, as Palmeiras are hosting Internacional in the Serie A only three days away.
Palmeiras are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 11 away goals from 8 games (in the league). They concede less than a goal on average per away game (4 so far). It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
