Sampaio Corrêa form and stats

There's been little loot from Sampaio Corrêa's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 16 away games in the Serie B. Sampaio Corrêa only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 6 draws. It's all red in the travel logs of Sampaio, having lost five matches in a row as the visiting team.

Sampaio have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 295 minutes ago. A. Godoi was the goal scorer.

Sampaio's previous game was their home loss versus Guarani (0-1). Midfielder Leandro Ferreira Pessoa was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.41. Pessoa hit one key pass and had 29 successful passes (of 36 total).

Prior to that match, the Sampaio manager F. da Silva Surian faced defeat when travelling to Coritiba and losing 0-3.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Sampaio playing away, we found one game. Results were zero away wins, one draw and zero home wins.

A new game in only three days for Sampaio, the Serie B home match versus Brasil de Pelotas. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Sampaio have seen the ball go into their own net 21 times on the road.
