This could be an interesting match as CRB have their presumed home advantage while Cuiabá are ahead 12 points in the Serie B table.
- CRB has the fewest points from losing position (3) in Serie B
- Cuiabá has the most scored goals in the second half (31) in Serie B
The visiting Cuiabá played their last game only four days ago, a Copa Verde match.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 2900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
CRB are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Cuiabá is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
CRB form and stats
CRB have played 18 Serie B games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 10-5-3 (wins-draws-losses). CRB has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Estádio Rei Pelé. We remember; it was Parana.
In their previous game, the manager J. Fernandes Barros led his CRB to a defeat in the Serie B match away at Ponte Preta. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio Rei Pelé. Ahead of that match, CRB won a home game hosting Figueirense (5-1).
CRB are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 26 goals in 18 games. CRB are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estádio Rei Pelé in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 12 from 18 matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Cuiabá form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie B travels is 5 wins, 5 draws and 8 defeats.
Cuiabá are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Copa Verde against Aparecidense. The game before that, in the Serie B, was lost at home, a 1-3 defeat against Sampaio Correa.
The visitors have scored 16 goals from 18 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. 23 goals have been conceded by Cuiabá in these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
