14-13-11 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Audax Italiano when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 38 matches are 51-55 (scored/conceded).

These teams have little in common geographically as Audax Italiano have to travel 3200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Santos form and stats

Last season their Copa Sudamericana adventure ended in the round of 16 against Deportivo Tachira.

Stress levels are on the rise for Santos's attacking players as they have now played 355 minutes without scoring in a league game. Leonardo was their last goal scorer.

The supporters are hoping that Santos will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the match against Gremio.

Before that game, a nice away victory at Botafogo SP. A Copa do Brasil game.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Serie A game versus Atletico Mineiro in only three days. This game is also played here at Estádio Urbano Caldeira.

Audax Italiano form and stats

Playing away, Audax Italiano have won 0 games, drawn 2 and suffered 3 defeats in the Primera Division this season.

Audax Italiano's previous game was their home loss versus Universidad Chile (1-2).

Ahead of that, the Chilean Cup victory away at Recoleta.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Audax Italiano manager Fernández as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Nublense.

The visitors have scored 4 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As for defending, Italiano rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 9 goals from these away matches.
