Only a win will satisfy the Gama supporters in this clash with Palmas, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Serie D table.
It's no vacation for neither Gama nor Palmas as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
These teams have little in common geographically as Palmas have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
