OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Bragantino's two home games in the Serie A so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid.

The home team returns to Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid after drawing with Gremio (placed 7th) on their last time out; the game ended 3-3.

Borbas was able to secure the draw 3-3 in the game against Gremio after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today? Midfield player Evangelista got a match rating of 7.41 in that game, the max score being 10. Evangelista hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

A 0-0 scoreline against Estudiantes before that one, played at their own home stadium in the Copa Sudamericana. The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

América Mineiro form and stats

It's not happening yet for América Mineiro on their Serie A travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different?

The manager Mancini was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue Estádio Raimundo Sampaio. América suffered a 1-2 loss to Cuiabá (placed 13th). Late heartbreak for América Mineiro in the Cuiabá match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime. Attacker Aloisio got a player rating of 7.44 in the game. "Man of the match" Aloisio scored one goal, hit the woodwork once and hit one key pass.

Preceding that, 1-1 away against Millonarios in the Copa Sudamericana. América are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 5 wins, 7 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 16 matches.

A new game in only four days for América Mineiro, the Serie A home match versus Cruzeiro. Busy days.
