Ferroviária
LDWLWL
Ferroviária will be looking for an improved result here after the 2-1 Serie B defeat last time out to Paysandu.
In that match, Ferroviária had 49% possession and 10 attempts on goal with 2 on target. On the other side, Paysandu got 13 shots on goal with 5 of them on target. Marlon (65') was the scorer for Paysandu.
It’s been all too rare in recent times where Ferroviária haven’t conceded. It will be a concern for them that Ferroviária have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 8 goals on the way.
Vila Nova
LLLLLW
Vila Nova will come into the encounter following on from a 1-0 Serie B win against Atlético Goianiense in their most recent fixture.
In that match, Vila Nova had 49% possession and 7 attempts on goal with 1 of them on target. The scorer for Vila Nova was Xavier (85'). For their opponents, Atletico Goianiense had 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target.
The trend of at least one team not scoring a goal in games involving Vila Nova has been evident recently. Checking on their last 6 meetings reveals that this has occurred 5 times. In those clashes, opposing sides have hit a goal total of 8 while Vila Nova have scored 2. That trend isn’t assured to be carried forward into this match, though.

Prediction
We believe that Vila Nova are capable enough to find the net against this Ferroviária side, but that may not prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
We’re predicting both teams to score in a 2-1 win for Ferroviária at the end of this one. We’ll have to see what happens.
