Stadium: Gremio (Porto-Alegre).
The fifteenth round of the Brazilian football championship will continue with the match between Gremio and Chapecoense, the two Serie A underdogs. Gremio have had a terrible start to the tournament and have to fight for survival. The bookmakers are siding with the home side.
Gremio
There is a feeling that Gremio’s priority has shifted towards the Brazilian Cup. In general, maybe so, because in the championship, Immortal Tricolor already have nothing to do. But now we need to think about this possibility because the gap between them and Sao Paulo and the saving 16th place is 8 points. However, Gremio have three games left to play. Gremio scored just one point in their last two games: a draw against America and a narrow defeat by Bragantino. The game against the Bulls fell right between the matches against Vitoria in the Brazilian Cup. Gremio won both 3-0 and 1-0. Before Tuesday’s match, Gremio are in 19th position, with seven points. The Immortals’ home stats are also 19th, +0=4-2, 3-5.
Chapecoense
They are the weakest team in Serie A by all criteria. In their last ten games, the Big Green have only drawn twice and lost eight times. Moreover, in their previous two games, Chapecoense have failed to score against Juventude and Santos. It is not surprising that, with such statistics, Chapecoense are in last place in the championship standings, with just 4 points on the road. Chapecoense are unbeaten in the away matches, with three draws and four defeats in seven games on a goal difference of 8-13.
