With their 3 point advantage in the league table, Avaí fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Figueirense.

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 Figueirense.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

Avaí form and stats

With 2 Serie B wins, 0 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Avaí, who have the most conceded goals (10) at home in Serie B, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The Avaí manager E. Machado Souto might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Happy days for Avaí in their previous game, a Serie B match away at Cruzeiro (placed 17th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to Sampaio Correa (2-5).

Avaí are traveling soon after this match as the Serie B match at CRB awaits in three days.

The Avaí fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 6 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Avaí defense is not exactly impregnable. 10 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Figueirense form and stats

As the visiting team in Serie B matches, Figueirense, who have the fewest scored goals (5) in Serie B, have produced an overall stat of 2-1-2 so far.

Figueirense played 2-2 against Guarani in their previous match. Preceding that game was the away victory against America Mineiro with the score of 1-0.

A comeback secured a 90 minute draw in the match against Guarani. Figueirense were trailing 0-2 but refused to surrender and clawed their way back to 2-2, with Victor scoring the equalizer.

A new game in only three days for Figueirense, the Serie B home match versus Oeste. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 3 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's not easy to score on Figueirense as they have only conceded 4 goals from these away games.
