Let's have a look at how Ferroviária performed last season in the Paulista A1: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 6 victories, 3 draws and 3 defeats. In total they scored 20 and conceded 12 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 2 and lost 2 with 8/7 goals scored/conceded.
The manager E. Blumer was unhappy after their last game, a Serie D match played at their home ground Estádio Municipal Dr. Adhemar de Barros. Ferroviária suffered a 0-3 loss to Uberlândia (placed 2nd).
It was a Paulista A1 defeat before that one as the away game against São Paulo wasn't a success with a 2-4 loss.Head 2 Head
