CRB and Oeste meet at Estádio Rei Pelé, in a match for the 2nd round of Serie B. The record of direct confrontations played at this stadium indicates a total balance between these two teams, since there was 1 draw and 2 victories for each team in the last 5 games. Indeed, the last time these two teams met at this stadium was on 07-31-2019, for Serie B, which ended in a draw (2-2).

CRB :
The team comes to this match after an away win against Confiança by (0‑1). In the last 10 matches played at home for all competitions, the CRB won 6, drew 2 and lost 2. Their attack has scored regularly, since they always scored at least one goal in the last 10 matches. In 15 games, they suffered the first goal 7 times and only managed 2 comebacks.
The CRB comes from a complicated game and a long journey, but they know that Serie B is like that. On this day, he will play for the first time at home and adding the three points is practically a necessity. In view of this situation, you should seek to have possession early, as you do not want to complicate the task. By managing to control the game and not leaving spaces for the rival, the probability of adding the three points will be much higher than normal.
Oeste :
In their last match, for Paulista A1, they beat Botafogo SP at home by (3‑0). In its last 10 away matches the West has 2 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. Their defense has not been very strong, as they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 games, they conceded the first goal 10 times and never got the comeback.
It is always difficult to say what the West will do in Serie B, because they both run good campaigns and fight against relegation. If we judge by the state championship, he will surely fight to avoid the bottom of the table. So, you will have to evolve throughout the competition to have a better chance of getting good results. As he will have difficulties in this match, he cannot dismiss a draw as something positive.
