It's early days in the Serie B and both Cuiabá and Chapecoense are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Serie B game only four days ago.
Chapecoense have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1600 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Cuiabá form and stats
Only two Serie B home games for Cuiabá so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeat.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Joao Carlos Heidemann not having conceded a league goal in 369 minutes.
Cuiabá enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Avai's place. The match ended 2-0 with Rafael Gava (2) scoring. Ahead of that match, Cuiabá won a home game hosting Confianca (1-0).
The manager M. Oliveira Chamusca will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Botafogo SP in only four days.
Cuiabá has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 0 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Chapecoense form and stats
Chapecoense are still undefeated on their travels in the Serie B. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.
The Chapecoense goalkeeper Joao Ricardo Riedi is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 360 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Chapecoense had fun at their own home (Arena Pantanal) last time out, beating Guarani 2-0. Aylon and Anselmo Ramon scored. Preceding that game was the away victory against Cruzeiro with the score of 1-0.
After this away game Chapecoense return home for a Serie B game against Juventude. That game is only four sleeps after this.
It's early days yet, but Chapecoense has scored 1 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last two meetings: one - zero - one (Cuiabá wins - draws - Chapecoense wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.Top Goalscorers
