Insights:
  • Juventude have the fewest scored goals (26) in Serie A

For Juventude it's their last days at this level as relegation is a fact.

Juventude have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

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 Goiás and Juventude.

Goiás form and stats

Goiás have collected 23 points from their Serie A home games so far after 5-8-4. When Goiás hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Avaí, Goiás, Atletico GO, Coritiba, Cuiaba and Ceara), they have won 3 of 5 matches! Two draws in a row at home now for Goiás.

Goiás lost their last game at Atletico PR (placed 6th) after a 2-3 scoreline. The first defeat after collecting points through three league rounds. Gabriel (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.42/10. Gabriel served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 28 successful passes (of 35 total).

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Corinthians.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Goiás handle that role? We have found 15 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 8 wins, 6 draws and 1 defeat.

Some stats: A review of the 12 most recent league matches highlights that 9 of them had at least one goal from each team.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Goiás as they are travelling to their away game against Fluminense in the Serie A. That match is four days after this one.

The Goiás fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 17 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Goiás's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 18 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. Goiás has at home met teams with this table position (low), five times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 4 of 5 times.

Juventude form and stats

There's been little loot from Juventude's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 17 away games in the Serie A. Juventude only have 1 win to counter their 12 defeats and 4 draws. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Juventude have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Juventude have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 231 minutes ago. Capixaba was the goal scorer.

This game can not go any worse than the previous one, the home defeat versus Coritiba with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Juventude were so close to getting something from the game against Coritiba, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime.

A 0-1 defeat away at Atletico Mineiro before that.

We have checked recent matches where Juventude have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 11 games were 1 victory, 4 draws and 6 defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Juventude are hosting Flamengo in the Serie A only four days away.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Juventude as they have only managed to score 10 times from 17 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. For Juventude, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net. When Juventude is visiting a side on the bottom half, 3 of 4 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Avaí, Atletico GO, Coritiba, Juventude, Cuiaba and Ceara.

Head 2 Head

Goiás have not lost in the last 4 fixtures (2-2-0) facing Juventude.

Juventude - Goiás 0-0 was the product when these sides previously did battle, also in this season.
