São Paulo form and stats

São Paulo have played 16 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-8-3 (wins-draws-losses).

Happy days for Paulo in their previous game, a Serie A match away at Palmeiras (placed 3rd) that ended with a 2-0 victory. Luciano, an attacker, was the top player for the team in that game, receiving a rating of 8.15 (out of 10). Luciano scored one goal, served one assist, hit three key passes and had 23 successful passes (of 25 total).

Preceding that match was a defeat to Flamengo (0-4).

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier São Paulo matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, three draws and one defeat (from six games).

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Paulo, as the Serie A home game vs Sport Recife is only three days away.

São Paulo aren't scoring a lot here at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo in the league, with only 13 goals from 16 games. From these home matches, São Paulo have conceded only 14 goals.

Athletico PR form and stats

There's been little loot from Athletico PR's travels as they have only collected 16 points from 16 away games in the Serie A. Athletico PR only have 5 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 1 draw.

The supporters enjoyed Athletico PR's previous game versus Bragantino (placed 6th), a Copa Sudamericana 1-0 win played at home.

Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Atlético Mineiro.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Athletico playing away, we found four games. Results were two away wins, zero draws and two home wins.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Serie A trip to Corinthians.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Athletico have scored 17 goals in 16 league games away. Athletico have conceded 22 goals in these away matches.
