It's the second chance for points this season as Santa Cruz and Floresta battle it out at Estádio Jóse do Rego Maciel.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

Last season, Santa Cruz's league statistics were 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses, resulting in a 4th position in the Pernambucano 1. Over these nine matches they scored 12 goals and conceded 9. Playing at home last season Santa Cruz managed 2-2-1 (win-draw-lost) with 7 goals and 4 conceded.
No payout for Santa in their previous match, an away game at Manaus that ended in defeat 0-2.
Prior to that, an away loss at Nautico in the Pernambucano 1.Floresta form and stats
Let's have a look at how Floresta performed last season in the Serie D: They landed a 3rd position in the league table after playing out 6 victories, 6 draws and 2 defeats.
