Bragantino form and stats

The visitors are W7-D4-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Serie A.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Ceará (placed 13th) in their previous outing. The Serie A match ended in a draw 2-2. It looked so good for Bragantino vs Ceará, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw. Cleiton had red hot gloves after the game against Ceará, shaping the outcome of the game with seven saves made. As mentioned above, Bragantino drew the match against Ceará. Manager M. Nogueira Barbieri brought on Alerrandro to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked. Midfielder Helinho was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.14. Helinho scored one goal, hit five key passes and had 32 successful passes (of 37 total).

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Atlético GO.

Bragantino are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, three draws and five defeats. From a total of nine matches.

A new game in only three days for Bragantino, the Serie A home match versus Sao Paulo. Busy days.

Bragantino are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 23 times in 13 away games so far. 14 goals have been conceded by Bragantino in these games.
