Grêmio form and stats

5-4-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Grêmio, who have the fewest conceded goals (19) in Serie A, so far this season. After failing to beat Internacional here at Arena do Grêmio, Grêmio has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with four wins in a row.

Grêmio enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Guarani's place. The match ended 2-0 with Pepê and Jean Pyerre scoring. Preceding that game was the away draw at Corinthians that finished 0-0.

The home team are expected to win this game about three out of four times, according to the bookmaker odds. When checking the database for Grêmio home games with this odds we find eight games with a similar winning chance. Resulting in four wins, one draw and three defeats. Looking at the victories, four matches were won by at least two goals.

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

A decent goal production from Grêmio in their home games so far, with 16 goals from 10 league matches. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Grêmio have conceded 10 goals.

Goiás form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Goiás, who have the fewest points (4) away in Serie A, so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 0-4-6 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

Goiás has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Fortaleza for a Serie A game that ended a draw (1-1). That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Palmeiras.

Tadeu had red hot gloves after the game against Fortaleza, shaping the outcome of the game with seven saves made.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Goiás played away with similar odds. This revealed ten games. The visitors overcame the odds to win two times, zero were draws and the home team won as expected eight times.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Sao Paulo in just three days.

The visitors have scored 8 goals from 10 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As for defending, Goiás rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 17 goals from these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: five - three - two (Grêmio wins - draws - Goiás wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.
