Bragantino form and stats

The story so far in the Serie A for Bragantino, who have the most scored goals (22) in Serie A, at their home stadium (Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid) is 1 win, 4 draws and 0 defeats. Bragantino has a nice streak going on as they have played twelve consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Palmeiras defeat 65 days ago.

Happy days for Bragantino in their previous game, a Copa Sudamericana match away at Independiente del Valle that ended with a 2-0 victory.

Preceding that game was the away draw at Atletico PR that finished 2-2.

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 Bragantino have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won four times, drawn seven and lost one.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Independiente del Valle are coming to town in three days.

The Bragantino fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 9 goals in 5 league matches. On the other hand, Bragantino have conceded 7 goals.

Santos form and stats

Playing away, Santos have won 0 games, drawn 1 and suffered 4 defeats in the Serie A this season. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Santos have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone eleven consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Santo Andre game.

Kaio Jorge scored in Santos's previous match, the home game against Independiente that ended 1-0.

It was a Serie A defeat before that one as the away game against Palmeiras wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.

Santos are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, four draws and eight defeats. From a total of 14 matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Santos manager F. Diniz Silva as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Independiente.

The visitors have scored 4 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Santos manager F. Diniz Silva has some worries about the defense as 11 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's two Bragantino victories, five draws and three Santos wins. Over/under statistics; four of these games ended with three goals or more, six matches with two goals or less.
