Tombense form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Serie B this season. Tombense have only managed 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses from their games here at Estádio Soares de Azevedo.
Tombense enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Juventude's place. The match ended 2-1 with Sandro and Keké scoring. Just what the doctor ordered, as that was the first three points in the league after going winless in nine matches in a row. The victory against Juventude came after Sandro's winning goal. The Tombense manager Chamusca was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 73rd minute. Defender Augusto got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.34/10. Augusto won 4 of 7 duels.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Vitoria (1-2).The manager Chamusca will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Vila Nova in only three days.
