Sao Paulo perform at a high level so far being 6th in the table. Goias can look both up and down from their 12th position.

Goiás could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Serie A game only three sleeps ago.

São Paulo form and stats

São Paulo have collected 18 points from their Serie A home games so far after 4-6-0. In general it's been a long time since São Paulo tasted defeat here at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo, as they have taken at least one point from their last ten home games.

A good away victory last time out for São Paulo, who won 2-1 against Botafogo (placed 11th). Preceding that game was the home draw versus CSA that ended 1-1.

The home team are expected to win this game about three out of four times, according to the bookmaker odds. When checking the database for São Paulo home games with this odds we find seven games with a similar winning chance. Resulting in 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat. Looking at the victories, 3 matches were won by at least two goals.

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

São Paulo are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 10 attempts. From these home matches, São Paulo have conceded only 6 goals.

Goiás form and stats

There's been little loot from Goiás's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 10 away games in the Serie A. Goiás, who have the the worst goal difference (-18) away in Serie A, only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Goiás have lost on their last two travels.

Goiás won their last game, 3-0 versus Fluminense played at home. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Cuiaba in the Copa Verde.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Goiás played away with similar odds. This revealed three games. The visitors overcame the odds to win 0 times, 0 were draws and the home team won as expected 3 times.

Goiás are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 5 goals from 10 away games. The Goiás manager Lauro has some worries about the defense as 23 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Goiás - São Paulo 1-2. São Paulo-Goiás H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: São Paulo 5 wins, Goiás 4 wins, 1 draw. 5 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
