Only a win will satisfy the Chapecoense supporters in this Arena Condá clash with Náutico, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Serie B table.

Insights:
  • Chapecoense has the fewest conceded goals (12) in Serie B
  • Náutico have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

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 Chapecoense and Náutico.

Náutico have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

A nice win for Chapecoense last time playing, versus CRB. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-2 with Foguinho, Mike and Anselmo Ramon scoring for the victors. Before that match, a win away at Avai.

Manager U. Louzer Filho felt very clever after Foguinho scored the winning goal against CRB, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 79th minute.
