This could be an interesting match as CRB have their presumed home advantage while Chapecoense are ahead 6 points in the Serie B table.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Serie B. That game was an away game at Guarani, so at least CRB are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

These teams have little in common geographically as Chapecoense have to travel 3300 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

CRB form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Estádio Rei Pelé as CRB have scored 9 goals to get 12 points from 6 games. The overall stats in the Serie B are 3-3-0 (wins-draws-losses).

The fans are hoping that CRB will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Serie B game against Guarani (placed 18th). Heartbreak before that as CRB lost 0-1 at Confianca's place.

The match schedule is unforgiving for CRB as they have a new game in only three days, a Serie B match thankfully also at home. Operario PR are visiting.

The CRB fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 9 goals in 6 league matches. From these home matches, CRB have conceded only 5 goals.

Chapecoense form and stats

Playing away, Chapecoense, who have the fewest conceded goals (4) in Serie B, have won 2 games, drawn 4 and suffered 1 defeat in the Serie B this season. In general it has been a productive period now for Chapecoense as they haven't lost any of their last ten games.

The Chapecoense goalkeeper Joao Ricardo Riedi is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 282 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Chapecoense has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Figueirense for a Serie B game that ended a draw (0-0). A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Botafogo SP.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Vitoria in just three days.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (4 so far).
