Atlético Mineiro form and stats

Atlético Mineiro, who have the most scored goals (34) at home in Serie A, are steadily winning Serie A games and points here at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio. 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 15 games. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Atlético after consecutive victories at their own ground.

In their previous game, the manager J. Sampaoli Moya led his Atlético to a defeat in the Serie A match away at Vasco da Gama. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio. Preceding that game was the away draw at Gremio that finished 1-1.

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Hyoran for missing a penalty kick versus Vasco da Gama in the 15th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

Goals decide football matches and Atlético are scoring many of them at home; 34 on target from 15 league matches. Atlético are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 12 from 15 matches.

Santos form and stats

5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses. That’s the product of Santos playing as the away team in the Serie A this season.

Santos might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Goias proved too strong as Santos slumped to a 3-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Estádio Urbano Caldeira. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Fortaleza wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

A huge disappointment for Santos in their last match (vs Goias). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 3-4 defeat. As you can tell from the result, the match against Goias was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

Santos has another fixture away, a Copa Libertadores game, against Palmeiras in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Santos as they have only managed to score 13 times from 15 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 20 goals have been conceded by Santos in these games.
