Competition: Brazil Serie B
Date: Mon 07.October
Match begins: 23:00 (UTC)
Venue: Centro de Integração Comunitário Walter Ribeiro (13722 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 19th and the visitors in 16th place.

São Bento have less rest than Vila Nova in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Serie B game only three days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Bragantino, was also a home game here at Centro de Integração Comunitário Walter Ribeiro. The away team is better rested. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Bragantino.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 800 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
