Goias, Recent FormGoias will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their away fixture against Coritiba. They came away from that fixture with 50% of the possession and clocked up 21 attempts on goal with 6 on target. By comparison, Coritiba managed 8 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 9, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Goalscorer Matheus Babi will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Goias.
Santos, Recent FormIt's fair to say Santos will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Cuiaba, a match that ended in a 0-0 draw. They achieved 60% possession in that match and had 4 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Cuiaba's tally of 7 efforts at goal, 0 of which were on target.
Supremo Marcelo Fernandes will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 13 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 7 goals they've managed to net. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It's been a mixed run of form for Santos recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.
Marcos Leonardo has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Goias.
It was not a positive ending for Goias last time they met Santos in the league, with the game ending in a 4-3 defeat.
Goals should be on the cards for Goias in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Peixe in their last 5 meetings together. When Santos visit Verdão in the league, goals tend to happen, with 6 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2 goals per match.
There is only really one injury concern for the Goias manager Armando Evangelista ahead of this clash, with Gabriel Novaes (Thigh) missing out, which gives Evangelista a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With both Felipe Jonatan (Cruciate ligament) and Sandry Santos Goes (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season and João Basso (Thigh), Alex de Oliveira (Broken ankle), Luan Dias (Muscle), Alison Lopes Ferreira (Knee) and Alfredo Morelos (Calf) all unavailable in the shorter term, Santos manager Marcelo Fernandes will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
