The glass has been half empty for Atlético GO so far, and the same description fits Juventude. These hardened teams have a chance to get some important points here.

Insights:
  • Atlético GO haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
  • Juventude have the most conceded goals (21) in Serie A

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1700 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Atlético have less rest than Juventude in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Serie A game only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Palmeiras.

Atlético GO form and stats

2-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Atlético GO so far this season.

In their previous game, the manager Campos led his Atlético GO to a defeat away at Palmeiras. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio Antônio Accioly. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Ronaldo had a busy but productive day in the Palmeiras match. Despite making nine saves the loss could not be prevented. Churin, who usually plays near the opponent's goal, was the highest rated player for the side in that fixture, and was presented with a rating of 8.44 (out of 10). Churin scored two goals.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Fluminense and winning 2-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Atlético have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 11 games) they have won 3 times, drawn 7 and lost 1.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Atlético GO, as the Copa do Brasil home game vs Goiás is only three days away.

Atlético GO are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estádio Antônio Accioly in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 5 from 6 matches. Atlético has at home met teams with this table position (low), two times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.

Juventude form and stats

1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Juventude playing as the away team in the Serie A this season. Recent form does not give Juventude much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Atlético GO will be a tough nut to crack.

Juventude's previous game was their home loss versus Santos (1-2). It is a bit troubling for Juventude that their keeper César made seven saves in the Santos match, but still couldn't prevent a defeat.

Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Corinthians's place.

Juventude are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats. From a total of 11 matches.

Juventude struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 9 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the previous six meetings featuring these two squads are: two wins for Atlético GO, three draws and one win for Juventude. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: three games.
