America Mineiro — Avai : Match Preview and Prediction for September 03,2025

America Mineiro’s Current Season Struggles

America Mineiro is enduring a far from ideal season so far, finding themselves unexpectedly in the relegation zone. Currently sitting second to last, they do have a game in hand, which offers a glimmer of hope. Despite their precarious position, there’s a strong belief that the team has ample opportunities to avoid relegation to Serie C this season.

Defensive and Offensive Analysis

This season, the Minas Gerais representatives don’t necessarily stand out for a weak defense; many teams in the league concede more goals. America’s attack isn’t particularly feeble either, with the squad averaging approximately one goal per match, which are decent figures overall. However, recent results have been troubling, as the team has failed to secure a victory in nine consecutive outings. What’s particularly frustrating is that nearly all their defeats have been by the narrowest of margins. Their last match against Goias, for instance, ended in a minimal defeat, despite America outperforming their opponent in expected goals (XG) even on the road.

Avai’s Mid-Table Position and League Volatility

Avai currently occupies the 12th position in the league table this season. They are only six points away from fourth place, highlighting the tight competition in Brazil’s Serie B. However, the sheer density of points in the championship means that a few unfavorable results could quickly see them plummet to the bottom.

Offensive Strength and Away Form Concerns

Avai boasts a genuinely strong attack. By this stage of the season, only five teams in Serie B, including Avai, have scored 30 or more goals. Their away performance, however, tells a different story, with the team securing only two victories on the road this season. They tend to play in series: a run of four matches without a win was followed by an equally long unbeaten streak. Unfortunately, their most recent home game ended in a surprising defeat to Amazonas, a truly sensational result given that Avai largely dominated the play. Despite a heroic late comeback, they conceded a decisive goal right at the death.
