It's the second chance for points this season as Volta Redonda and Figueirense battle it out at Estádio Municipal General Raulino de Oliveira.

Figueirense have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Redonda and Figueirense.

Volta Redonda form and stats

Last season, Volta Redonda's league stats were 1 win, 3 draws and 7 losses, ending with 12th place in the Carioca 1. During these eleven matches they scored 11 goals and let in 21. Playing as the home side in the last season Volta Redonda generated 1-1-4 (win-draw-lost) with 9 goals and 10 conceded. A Serie C draw at home so far for Volta Redonda. Last season their home statistics were 1 win, 1 draw and 4 defeats from 6 matches.

The spoils were shared in Volta Redonda's previous game, also at home. Visiting Figueirense (placed 5th) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline.

Preceding that game was the away draw at Portuguesa RJ that finished 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Redonda have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won four, drawn five and lost one.

Volta Redonda has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Figueirense form and stats

Let's have a look at how Figueirense performed last season in the Catarinense 1: They landed a 7th position in the league table after playing out 4 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. In total they scored 15 and conceded 14 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 2 and lost 3 with 5/8 goals scored/conceded. One match played away so far in the Serie C for Figueirense and it was a tie. Last season the statistics for their away games were 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses from 6 games.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Volta Redonda (placed 6th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 1-1.

A 0-2 defeat away at Camboriu before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Figueirense playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were two Figueirense wins, three draws and six defeats.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Figueirense has managed 1 goal and let in 1 from 1 match.
