Match Preview
In the upcoming Serie B clash, Novorizontino will host Athletic Club at the Estádio Dr. Jorge Ismael de Biasi on Tuesday, 23 September. Both teams are struggling for form, with Novorizontino recording just one win in their last five matches (LLDDL), while Athletic Club has similarly found it difficult, managing only one draw in their last five outings (LDLDD). This match presents an opportunity for either side to break their poor run, but historical data suggests a tight contest; in their last ten encounters, Novorizontino has won only once at home, with no games seeing over 2.5 goals or both teams scoring.
A key angle to consider is Novorizontino's home advantage against a struggling Athletic Club side. While both teams have shown vulnerabilities, Novorizontino may look to exploit their familiarity with the home ground to secure a much-needed victory. The lack of goals in their previous meetings indicates that a low-scoring affair is likely, making it crucial for Novorizontino to find their scoring touch early on to set the tone for the match.
