Juventude form and stats

The visitors are W0-D3-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Serie A. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Juventude are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Juventude delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Atletico GO (placed 10th) in their previous match; a Serie A game. Matheus Peixoto, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.05. Peixoto scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Prior to that match, the Juventude manager M. dos Santos Gonçalves faced defeat when travelling to Bahia and losing 0-1.

Juventude 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, four draws and six defeats. From a total of eleven matches.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Juventude as they have only managed to score 3 times from 5 away games in the league. 6 goals have been conceded by Juventude in these games.
