Nautico Preview – Can Nautico maintain unbeaten start?

Victories over Operario 5-0 at home along with a 1-0 win on the road at Goias last time out have helped maintain Nautico’s unbeaten start to this new term and the hosts will no doubt be looking for more of the same on Monday night at their Estádio Eládio de Barros Carvalho.

Ponte Preta Preview – Can Ponte Preta lift out of bottom four?
Despite being unbeaten in their last five matches, Ponte Preta have nevertheless slipped down into the bottom four and the relegation zone of Serie B following four draws and a win, but these results haven’t been enough to keep them above the dotted line down near the bottom of the table.
Points picked up in draws with Operario, Brasil de Pelotas, Vila Nova and Avai have been boosted by a 2-1 home win over CSA but this has been just the solitary win so far this season for Monday’s visitors, Ponte Preta.
Results away from home have been poor for some time though as Ponte Preta have managed to register just two away wins out of their last 16 matches on the road, and this doesn’t bode well for this visit to the league leaders on Monday night.
