It's a fresh start in Serie D - the first game of the season. Read this full guide and see how Ferroviária and URT did in their pre-season friendly games!
Ferroviária form and stats
It's the first season at a new level for Ferroviária as they were promoted from Paulista A1 last season. Happy days that were secured through 3 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses from twelve games. The team scored 8 goals at home last season and conceded 8. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.
Ferroviária are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave Estádio Doutor Adhemar de Barros with a victory. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. In their match history eleven earlier games are comparable to this one, and Ferroviária has won five times, drawn one and lost five. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Ferroviária has won by at least two goals two times when in this position.
URT form and stats
The last season was not a pleasant experience for URT as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 1 victory from eleven games, relegation was a fact. URT's manager Severo are hoping to lead the team right back to Mineiro 1 at the first attempt.
Nobody expects URT to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 28 times before, with the overall statistics of won five, draw eight and lost 15. When defeated, ten matches have been lost by two or more goals.
