It's advantage Botafogo SP so far with their 2nd position in the Serie B table, welcoming CRB who are placed 12th.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

CRB have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

CRB form and stats

The visitors are W2-D0-L2 on the road this term. CRB has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

The supporters enjoyed CRB's previous game versus Criciúma, a Serie B 2-0 win played at home. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Operário PR wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

A quick return to home after this game, as CRB are hosting Oeste in the Serie B only four days away.

CRB are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 4 games. CRB are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 3 times in 4 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
