It's a fresh start in Serie D - the first game of the season. Read this full guide and see how São Bernardo and Portuguesa RJ did in their pre-season friendly games!
São Bernardo form and stats
It's the first season at a new level for São Bernardo as they were promoted from Paulista A1 last season. Happy days that were secured through 4 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses from twelve games. The team scored 6 goals at home last season and conceded 2. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.
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 São Bernardo have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won seven, drawn two and lost one.
Portuguesa RJ form and stats
A job perfectly done for Portuguesa RJ last season as they secured promotion from Carioca 1. With a grand total of 3 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 0 were in away matches.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Portuguesa playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were four Portuguesa RJ wins, one draw and one defeat.
A new game in only three days for Portuguesa RJ, the Copa do Brasil home match versus Corinthians. Busy days.
