Goiás form and stats

Perfect Serie B season at home so far for Goiás, who have the the best goal difference (+6) at home in Serie B, 3 wins from 3 appearances. There’s a good atmosphere here at Estádio do Governo do Estado de Goiás after three straight home wins.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Goiás, as their goalkeeper Tadeu Antonio Ferreira has completely shut out the opponents for 211 minutes in the Serie B.

Goiás manager L. de Oliveira Preto and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Vila Nova (placed 10th) in the Serie B. Reynaldo was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.15 out of 10. The defender Reynaldo won 3 of 6 duels.

Before that game, the 3-0 home victory against Avai.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Goiás have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won four, drawn one and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Goiás as they are travelling to their away game against Vitoria in the Serie B. That match is three days after this one.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (6 in 3 games), Goiás's attacking play is working. Defensively Goiás have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (0 in 3 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Vasco da Gama form and stats

Things could have gone better for Vasco da Gama in their Serie B away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

Germán Cano and Léo Matos scored in Vasco's previous match, the home game against Brusque that ended 2-1. Leandro Castán was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.71. The defender Castán served one assist, hit one key pass and won 6 of 8 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Cruzeiro wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Vasco playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were two Vasco da Gama wins, two draws and three defeats.

A new game in only three days for Vasco, the Serie B home match versus Confianca. Busy days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Vasco da Gama have scored 4 goals in 3 league games away. 4 goals have been conceded by Vasco in these games.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's two Goiás victories, four draws and four Vasco da Gama wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, seven matches with two goals or less.
