São Bento hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 8 points and a 10th position in the Serie C table. Visiting Criciúma holds 4th place with 15 pts.
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.
Criciúma have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
