Venue: São Januario (25000 seats)

Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Vasco da Gama in 10th and Goiás in 12th place.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

It's quite the trip for Goiás when visiting Vasco da Gama as the cities are 1300 kilometers apart.

Vasco da Gama form and stats

6-4-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Vasco da Gama so far this season. Vasco da Gama are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at São Januario, having lost their two previous games here.

Vasco da Gama manager Vanderlei Luxemburgo and his team return home after a 4-4 draw away versus Flamengo (placed 1st) in the Serie A. Before that match, a win away at CSA.

A goal frenzy last time out for Vasco da Gama, with a total of 8 goals in the match against Flamengo. Fun stuff to watch!

The Vasco da Gama fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 16 matches. Vasco da Gama have conceded 20 in these home matches.

Goiás form and stats

Goiás, who have the most conceded goals (34) away in Serie A, have only collected 12 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 3-3-10 (16 played). Goiás has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Thalles was the last player to score for the away team. Goiás haven't scored a league goal in the last 180 minutes.

The manager Ney Franco was unhappy after their last game, a Serie A match played at their home ground São Januario. Goiás suffered a 0-3 loss to Santos (placed 3rd). Prior to that match, the Goiás manager Ney Franco faced defeat when travelling to Atlético Mineiro and losing 0-2.

Goiás goalkeeper Tadeu had a great day against Santos, but despite making 8 saves the loss could not be avoided.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Goiás as they have only managed to score 11 times from 16 away games in the league. Goiás have conceded 34 goals in these games.
