Santos host América Mineiro for another interesting Serie A match here at Estádio Urbano Caldeira.
These are active days for the hosts, as they played only four days ago in the Copa do Brasil. That game was an away game at Coritiba, so at least Santos are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Santos form and stats
The hosts won their first Serie A game here at Estádio Urbano Caldeira, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Santos last season were 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses from 6 games. Two home wins in a row for Santos bring valid hopes of a third.
The supporters are hoping that Santos will fight back in this game, putting things right after the 0-1 away defeat in the Copa do Brasil fixture against Coritiba.
Previous to that game, a Serie A home match hosting Coritiba in a game that was won 2-1.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Santos have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won five, drawn five and lost two.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Santos as they are travelling to their away game against Union La Calera in the Copa Sudamericana. That match is four days after this one.
Santos has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
América Mineiro form and stats
América Mineiro have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Serie A were 2 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats from 5 fixtures. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Mancini, the América Mineiro manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
Two travels in a row for América Mineiro, whose coach Mancini could celebrate last time after the Copa do Brasil win against CSA.
That result followed a home victory 4-1 versus Juventude in the Serie A.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with América Mineiro playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were three América wins, one draw and one defeat.
A new game in only three days for América Mineiro, the Copa Libertadores home match versus Deportes Tolima. Busy days.
0 goals so far away for América Mineiro, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the former eight meetings between these two contenders are: three wins for Santos, zero draws and five wins for América Mineiro. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Top Goalscorers
