Grêmio form and stats

3-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Grêmio, who have the most conceded goals (12) at home in Serie A, so far this season.

The Grêmio fans got no joy from their last match, a Copa Libertadores game also here at Arena do Grêmio: A 0-1 defeat against Palmeiras. The points were shared before that, a Serie A home game that ended 1-1 versus Palmeiras.
