Náutico and Sport Recife meet at a moment when their form is heading in opposite directions. Náutico have just lost 0-3 in their last match, while Sport Recife have just won 2-1, so this game is a measure between a team trying to find its way back and a team riding the confidence from their previous result. Náutico sit mid-table, not far from the upper zone, but their home form is still not entirely trustworthy. At home in 14 matches they have won 7, drawn 3 and lost 4, scoring on average less than one and a half goals per game, while Sport Recife have not won much on the road. Away from home in 14 matches they have won 4, drawn 4 and lost 6, with an away attack scoring less than one goal per game. This game is likely to open up gradually. Both teams score few first-half goals and often end the first half level or with only a small gap, but the second half tends to open up more, because both teams concede nearly half of all their goals late in matches. If Náutico can settle and avoid conceding first, the game should end without defeat.
