Sampaio Corrêa and Guarani have delivered a "par" performance so far this season, to use a golf phrase. Both have mid-table positions in the Serie B.

Insights:
  • Sampaio Corrêa have won significantly more corners at home than away.
  • Guarani have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Guarani have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
