This is shaping out to be an interesting game as Operário PR have their presumed home advantage, while Goiás have an edge of 13 points in the Serie B standings.

Insights:
  • Operário PR have the fewest dropped points from leading position (3) in Serie B
  • Goiás have won significantly less corners away then at home.

It's no vacation for neither Operário nor Goiás as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

It's quite the trip for Goiás when visiting Operário as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.

Goiás are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

Operário PR form and stats

When playing at home in the Serie B, Operário PR have managed 7 wins, 3 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 16 games.

The fans are hoping that Operário will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Serie B game against Coritiba (placed 1st). Defender Renie got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.13/10. Renie won 0 of 1 duels.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Avai in a game that was won 2-1.

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 Operário PR have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 13 matches with the results: Won five, drawn five and lost three.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Remo are coming to town in three days.

The Operário fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 16 matches. On the other hand, Operário have conceded 18 goals.

Goiás form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie B travels is 5 wins, 6 draws and 5 defeats. Goiás have had a generous will to share for some time now, running a streak of three draws in a row.

Goiás's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Ponte Preta that finished 2-2. The match against Ponte Preta looked like a defeat for Goiás, but they did not accept the outcome and clawed their way back to 2-2. Alef Manga equalized in the 89th minute. The attacker Alef Manga got a match rating of 7.8 in that game. Manga scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Botafogo.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eleven similar matches played by Goiás in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Goiás, one draw and five defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Goiás are hosting Coritiba in the Serie B only four days away.
