Avaí form and stats

When playing at home in the Serie B, Avaí have managed 7 wins, 3 draws and suffered 7 defeats from 17 games.

An away draw last time out for Avaí, facing CSA in a game that ended 1-1. In the match before that, Avaí hosted Vitoria and drew the game 2-2.

Renato was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against CSA after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

The match schedule is unforgiving for Avaí as they have a new game in only four days, a Serie B match thankfully also at home. Guarani are visiting.

Avaí has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 17 matches. 22 goals have been conceded.

Juventude form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (47) in Serie B, on their Serie B travels is 5 wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats. It's all red in the travel logs of Juventude, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.

The supporters enjoyed Juventude's previous game versus Cruzeiro (placed 14th), a Serie B 1-0 win played at home. Prior to that match, the Juventude manager L. de Oliveira Preto faced defeat when travelling to Brasil de Pelotas and losing 1-2.

A quick return to home after this game, as Juventude are hosting Figueirense in the Serie B only three days away.

Juventude have scored 19 goals on their travels this season, from 17 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Juventude have seen the ball go into their own net 23 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Juventude - Avaí 3-0 earlier this season. Numbers for the last six meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Avaí, zero draws and two wins for Juventude. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
