Operário PR form and stats
Overall Serie B stats at home this season for Operário PR are 4-1-3 (wins-draw-losses).
Operário enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Remo's place. The match ended 1-0 with Thomaz scoring. Defender Fábio Alemão got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.64/10. Alemão won 7 of 11 duels. Operário made it very difficult for themselves, when Rafael Chorão got a red card in the 5th minute. The match was still a draw at this point. But even with this card, Operário PR won the match 1-0!
A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Goias.This is expected to be a close game, with Operário PR perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Operário PR as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Operário PR has won four of these, drawn five and lost three.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Serie B game versus Brusque in only three days. This game is also played here at Estádio Germano Krüger.
Operário has scored 9 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. Operário have conceded 11 in these home matches.
Botafogo form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Botafogo so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose). The fact that Botafogo have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.
Botafogo have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Diego Terra Loureiro. It's been 405 minutes since they last conceded in Serie B.
Impressive finishing from Rafael Moura secured the home win 2-0 against Ponte Preta in their previous game. Diego (goalkeeper) was the best performer with a rating of 7.4. Diego stopped the opponent with two saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.
That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Vasco da Gama.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Botafogo playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were four Botafogo wins, three draws and two defeats.
After this away game Botafogo return home for a Serie B game against Brasil de Pelotas. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Botafogo are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 8 games (in the league). As for defending, Botafogo rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 13 goals from these away matches.
