Grêmio battle against Sport Recife for glory and sporting success.
It's no vacation for neither Grêmio nor Sport Recife as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 2300 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Grêmio form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Grêmio's two home games in the Serie A so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Arena do Grêmio.
The Grêmio crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Caxias here at Arena do Grêmio in a Gaucho 1 match. Before that match, a win away at Caxias.
There will be little rest for Grêmio after this match as they are travelling to Atletico GO for a Serie A game in only three days.
Grêmio has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 0 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Sport Recife form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Serie A for Sport Recife with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts. Three has not been a lucky number for Sport Recife as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Atletico GO match.
I. Maidana was the last player to score for the away team. Recife haven't scored a league goal in the last 270 minutes.
Recife lost away at Coritiba (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus São Paulo.
Recife 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 five minutes into overtime.
After this away game Sport Recife return home for a Serie A game against Goias. That game is only three sleeps after this.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Sport Recife's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. As opposed to that, Recife have seen the ball go into their own net 4 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Grêmio won two, Sport Recife won five and three draws. five games with over 2,5 goals, five matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
