San Paolo are facing a marathon away from home, but the numbers say Morumbi has not yet made a difference in 2023


The Tricolor’s away performance is identical to when he plays at Morumbi this season

São Paulo starts at 20:00 (Brasilia time) next Thursday (11), against Fortaleza, for the Brazilian championship, one of the biggest away game sequences of the season. In five rounds, Tricolor will hold four fights away from Morumbi. But the main question is: does it make any difference? The numbers for 2023 indicate that no…

Tricolor has completed 22 games on the year so far. He also played 11 home and 11 away games. And the retrospective is exactly the same at Morumbi or away: six wins, three draws and two defeats.

That is, as a guest or not, without difference, San Paolo accumulates a performance of 63.6%.

Simply put, the Morumbi club can see the glass as half full or half empty. On the one hand there are performances that can be considered below average at home. On the other hand, a sequence like the one we will be dealing with now does not generate reasons to be frightened.

So much so that coach Dorival Júnior’s biggest concern for the sequel is the wear and tear generated by the journey. After all, playing away from home is customary for this group, with Sunday’s win against Internacional being Morumbi’s first home game after three consecutive away games.

Good luck, for Dorival and Tricolore, who after the sequence the scenario is reversed, with five main duels out of six scheduled. Shades of the complicated calendar of Brazilian football.
