Cruzeiro, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 away defeat by Sao Paulo will have left the Cruzeiro squad feeling a little deflated. During that encounter they had 45% possession and had 19 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 13 shots on goal.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 5 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 4, and leading to valuable points being dropped. This season they have failed to score in 9 of their 15 home games; however, of the 30 games they have played overall, they've kept 13 clean sheets.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 home games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
Internacional, Recent FormInternacional manager Eduardo Coudet will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against America Mineiro. They came away from that fixture with a 56% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to America Mineiro, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 16 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
Enner Valencia will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 6 goals in the last 6 league outings for Internacional.
Internacional had to make do with a share of the points in their last match against Cruzeiro, with the game ending a 0-0 draw.
In their past 5 meetings, Inter's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Raposa will have to take their chances when they come. Playing away from home, Inter have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Cruzeiro.
When playing away from home in the league, Inter have failed to win any of their last 17 meetings with Cruzeiro, with the last 2 of those games ending in a draw.
With only Rafael Bilu (Achilles tendon) and Ramiro Moschen Benetti (Meniscus) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Zé Ricardo will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Eduardo Coudet has a number of injury concerns in his Inter squad to contend with: Hugo Mallo (Muscle), Lucas Ramos (Knee) and Renê Rodrigues Martins (Thigh)
