Brasil de Pelotas form and stats

With 2 Serie B wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Brasil de Pelotas are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 14 attempts.

Stress levels are on the rise for Pelotas's attacking players as they have now played 180 minutes without scoring in a league game. Erison was their last goal scorer.

Pelotas lost their last game at Ponte Preta (placed 13th) after a 0-1 scoreline. The goalie Marcelo was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 7.41 out of ten. Marcelo stopped the opponent with four saves.

Preceding that match was a defeat to CRB (0-1).

This is expected to be a close game, with Brasil de Pelotas perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Brasil de Pelotas as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Brasil de Pelotas has won four of these, drawn seven and lost one.

The manager C. de Andrade Raphaelli will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Cruzeiro in only four days.

Brasil de Pelotas have scored 8 league goals here from 12 matches, not a lot. On the other hand, Brasil de Pelotas have conceded 12 goals.

Brusque form and stats

There's been little loot from Brusque's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 13 away games in the Serie B. Brusque only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Brusque, who have now gone twelve games without a victory. The Confianca game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

The manager W. Santos de Souza Dias was unhappy after their last game, a Serie B match played at their home ground Estádio Augusto Bauer. Brusque suffered a 0-1 loss to Vasco da Gama (placed 8th). The attacker Edu got a match rating of 7.44 in that game.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Sampaio Correa that ended 2-2.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Brusque playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were four Brusque wins, four draws and four defeats.

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

The attacking power of Brusque when travelling is not overwhelming with 12 goals scored from 13 league matches away. The Brusque manager W. Santos de Souza Dias has some worries about the defense as 26 goals have been conceded in these travels.
