The Avaí & CSA bosses C. dos Santos Oliveira and M. Batista Junior are both fearful of and eagerly anticipating this key fixture in the top part of the Serie B league table.

Insights:
  • Avaí haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
  • CSA is in the best form (4-0-2)

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 Avaí and CSA.

It's quite the trip for CSA when visiting Avaí as the cities are 3100 kilometers apart.

The season is still full of potential for Avaí as they can still win the whole Serie B. CSA are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

Avaí form and stats

9 victories, 5 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Avaí have to build on here at Estádio Aderbal Ramos da Silva in the Serie B.

The spoils were shared in Avaí's previous game, also at home. Visiting Vitoria (placed 18th) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. The gifted forward Jonathan Copete bettered all others in that fixture and was awarded a match rating of 7.62 out of 10. Copete scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

In the game before, an away victory match versus Brasil de Pelotas with a 1-0 scoreline.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Avaí handle that role? We have found 14 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are six wins, four draws and four defeats.

The Avaí fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 21 in 17 matches. From these home matches, Avaí have conceded only 12 goals.

CSA form and stats

As the visiting team in Serie B matches, CSA have produced an overall stat of 8-1-8 so far. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but CSA are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

250 minutes! That's how long the CSA goalkeeper Thiago Rodrigues de Oliveira Nogueira and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

CSA are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Serie B against Remo (placed 12th). Midfield player Marco Túlio was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.61/10. Túlio scored one goal and hit two key passes.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Vitoria with the score of 1-0.

CSA are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, three draws and three defeats. From a total of eight matches.

After this away game CSA return home for a Serie B game against Confianca. That game is only four sleeps after this.

CSA find the net regularly in their away games. 18 goals from 17 away fixtures in the league. As opposed to that, CSA have seen the ball go into their own net 17 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

CSA - Avaí 0-0 was the output when this pair of teams formerly played each other, also in this season. Statistics for the former seven meetings featuring these two teams are: one win for Avaí, five draws and one win for CSA. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: six games.
