Goal Statistics

Cruzeiro's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday night, not least because Vasco da Gama have conceded in each of their last 12 Serie A matches. A PG of 1.8 for A. Bacchi's side suggests that run should continue.

An absolutely awful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Vasco da Gama fans, as should a 6 Serie A games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
