It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Juventude and América Mineiro.

América Mineiro have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Juventude form and stats

5-3-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Juventude so far this season.

The fans are hoping that Juventude will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Serie A game against Sport Recife (placed 19th). Paulinho Bóia, a forward, was the best player for the team in that fixture, earning a rating of 7.44 (out of 10). Bóia scored one goal, hit the woodwork once, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 28 successful passes (of 32 total).

A 1-1 draw away before that, with Palmeiras the opponent.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Juventude as they are travelling to their away game against Flamengo in the Serie A. That match is four days after this one.

Juventude are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 12 games. Juventude have conceded 13 in these home matches.

América Mineiro form and stats

América Mineiro have only collected 11 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 2-5-4 (11 played).

América Mineiro had fun at their own home (Estádio Alfredo Jaconi) last time out, beating Palmeiras 2-1. Ademir and Patric scored. The end of the last match, against Palmeiras, was very satisfying as Ademir scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Marlon Lopes, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.71. Lopes hit one key pass and won 13 of 18 duels.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Cuiaba with the score of 2-0.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the América manager V. Carmo Mancini as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Internacional.

América find the net regularly in their away games. 11 goals from 11 away fixtures in the league. América have conceded 16 goals in these away matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

América Mineiro - Juventude 1-1 was the product when these contenders formerly played each other, also in this season. As for the last six games between these two teams, there's one Juventude victory, two draws and three América Mineiro wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
