Avaí fight Goiás for recognition and success.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1500 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Avaí and Goiás should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Avaí form and stats

The hosts won their first Serie A game here at Estádio Aderbal Ramos da Silva, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Avaí last season were 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses from 6 games.

Avaí faced defeat in their previous match, away at Corinthians (0-3). The forward Copete won the honour of being "man of the match" for Avaí with a rating of 7.44/10. Copete hit two key passes.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting América Mineiro in a game that was won 1-0.

This is expected to be a close game, with Avaí perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Avaí as a small favourite), we find ten games. Avaí has won five of these, drawn one and lost four.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Avaí at home in the league. 1 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Goiás form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Serie A ended in defeat. Last season Goiás had these away match statistics: Played 19; won 7, drew 7 and lost 5. Goiás seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

This fixture can not go any worse than the previous one, a Copa do Brasil home loss versus Bragantino with 1-2 on the scoreboard.

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Palmeiras.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Goiás in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Goiás, one draw and three defeats.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Goiás has managed 0 goals and let in 3 from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head data (for the former ten meetings): Avaí won three games, two matches ended with a tie and Goiás have five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / seven
