It's advantage Sampaio Corrêa so far with their 3rd position in the Serie B table, welcoming CRB who are placed 11th.

Insights:
  • Sampaio Corrêa have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • CRB have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Sampaio and CRB.

These teams have little in common geographically as CRB have to travel 1600 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
