Imperatriz form and stats

With 0 Serie C wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats from their home games, Imperatriz, who have the fewest scored goals (8) in Serie C, are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Imperatriz who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 14 attempts. Their previous win was against Sao Jose MA, 87 days ago. The home stadium (Estádio Frei Epifânio D'Abadia) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Imperatriz it's been a house of straw as the last five games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

In their previous game, the manager L. Dos Reis Goncalves led his Imperatriz to a defeat in the Serie C match away at Botafogo PB. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio Frei Epifânio D'Abadia.

Imperatriz were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Imperatriz aren't scoring a lot here at Estádio Frei Epifânio D'Abadia in the league, with only 5 goals from 6 games. Imperatriz are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (14 from 6 played).
