Sport Recife

WDDLLL 📉

Following on from a loss in their previous game against Red Bull Bragantino in Serie A action, Sport Recife and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that match, Sport Recife had 62% possession and 21 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. At the other end, Red Bull Bragantino got 16 attempts at goal with 7 on target. Juninho Capixaba (13') scored for Red Bull Bragantino.

The forward players for Sport Recife have made hard work of scoring goals over their previous 6 games, contributing the poor return of just 4. In those matches, Leão da Ilha have also seen the collective goal aggregate of their opponents equal 7. We will have to see whether or not that trend will be continued on here.

A look at their previous results shows us that Sport Recife:

• haven't won against Corinthians in away games against them for the last 9 league matches. A very poor set of away results, indeed.
• are without a win away from home in their last 2 league matches.
