Season ticket holders at Estadio Rei Pele haven’t seen too many victories this season, with CSA languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting Vasco da Gama will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for CSA and Vasco da Gama.
It's quite the trip for Vasco da Gama when visiting CSA as the cities are 2100 kilometers apart.
CSA form and stats
6 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what CSA have to build on here at Estadio Rei Pele in the Serie A.
In their previous game, the manager Argel Fucks led his CSA to a defeat in the Serie A match away at Grêmio. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Rei Pele. Heartbreak before that as CSA lost 0-1 at Atletico PR's place.
CSA are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 15 attempts. CSA have conceded 16 in these home matches.
Vasco da Gama form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie A travels is 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats. Vasco da Gama has drawn their two previous away games.
The manager Vanderlei Luxemburgo was unhappy after their last game, a Serie A match played at their home ground Estadio Rei Pele. Vasco da Gama suffered a 1-2 loss to Palmeiras (placed 2nd). Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Fluminense that ended 0-0.
The schedule is very tough for Vasco da Gama now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Serie A game at Flamengo is waiting in only three days.
The visitors have scored 11 goals from 15 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Vasco da Gama have conceded 17 goals in these away matches.
