The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Confiança are in the 13th position while the guesting Náutico worry at 17th.
- Confiança haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
- Náutico have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Confiança form and stats
Confiança have played 15 Serie B games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-5-4 (wins-draws-losses). It's trouble wherever Confiança are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. With Confiança having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager D. Pollo Barioni.
The fans are hoping that Confiança will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Serie B game against Brasil de Pelotas (placed 10th). Preceding that match was a defeat to Ponte Preta (1-2).
The manager D. Pollo Barioni will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to CRB in only four days.
Confiança has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 15 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Confiança have conceded 18 goals.
