Atletico GO Preview – Can Atletico GO win three on trot?
Atletico GO have won their opening first two matches of this season’s Serie A having registered victories against Corinthians and Sao Paulo an 1-0 and 2-0 wins respectively, and the hosts will be aiming to make it three wins on the trot on Thursday evening when they play host to Fortaleza.
Results towards the end of last season’s Brazilian top flight campaign were also encouraging as Atletico GO lost just two of their final eight matches of the run-in, while recording four wins with victories over Botafogo, Fortaleza, Sao Paulo and Coritiba.
In addition, Atletico GO have held the upper hand over their visitors as the hosts have lost just one of their previous seven meetings against Fortaleza.
Fortaleza Preview – Can Fortaleza keep run going?
A 1-0 home win against Sport Recife last time out in Serie A not only handed Fortaleza another three-point haul but it also extended the visitor’s winning start to the season to three games on the trot and they duly (and proudly) sit top of the Serie A table.
Earlier season wins against Atletico Mineiro and a crushing 5-1 victory over Internacional have given Fortaleza the best start possible to this new campaign and is in stark contrast to the end of last season which resulted in three defeats on the trot.
However, the bigger picture shows that Fortaleza have won six of their last 19 matches overall in the Brazilian top flight and they’ve also lost seven of their last eight away matches in Serie A as well.
