Internacional will host Bragantino as the Brazilian Serie A enters the 27th week of action. Both sides are pushing for Copa Libertadores slots, with hosts Internacional going to the game placed seventh with 39 points while Bragantino have 42 points, in fifth place. Last season, Inter fought for the title to the final stages of the campaign but it is highly unlikely they’ll be able to reach those heights this time. Of their 26 league matches so far, Inter have managed just 10 wins and have been poor defensively, conceding 27 in that run. Their last five matches, for example, have produced just one clean sheet – the 0-0 draw with Ceara. They are coming from a 1-0 loss to Palmeiras, a game in which Edenilson Andrade was sent off and will thus be suspended here. In the five goals they’ve conceded in the last five matches, four have come in the second half. The biggest positive they will be eyeing here is their home run. Inter have five straight wins at home and have scored in both halves in four of the five matches.

Bragantino, on the other hand, go to this game unbeaten in the last six matches, winning three. They’ve also managed just 10 wins in 26 matches and no side in the top eight has drawn as many as Bragantino (12). Their tally of wins is just three short of last season’s and there’s all the indication they will go beyond the 13 they managed then. In their last six matches, Bragantino have scored two or more goals in four of the last six matches while in eight of their last 10 both teams have scored. Six of their last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they’ve scored in the second half in all their last five games. They will have Eric dos Santos back from suspension and will hope to do better after conceding twice in stoppage time to draw 2-2 with Ceara in the last game. Bragantino have two wins only in eight away league matches and haven’t kept a clean sheet in the last four while they’ve conceded two or more in the last three.
