LOUD SC and Furia FC at 18:00

LOUD SC, run by Coringa and Brabox, top the Group A table after beating Fluxo FC with two goals from Felipe Viana and one from Helber Júnior against his former club. Furia FC, the team of Neymar and Cris Guedes, have played only one group game and lost it on Shootouts to Fluxo FC, but beat DesimpaiN 6-4 in the Matchday 2 Challenger.

Lipão Pinheiro arrives as the Kings Cup Brazil’s top scorer, with 4 goals, level with G3X FC’s Thiago ‘TH’.

DesimpaiN chase a first win against Dendele FC

DesimpaiN, Renato Vicente’s team and champions of the last Split, lost on Shootouts to Capim FC and were beaten by Furia FC in the Challenger: they are still without a win going into their third game. Their goalkeeper, Kaiky Souza, scored twice last time out.

Dendele FC, the team of Paulinho o Loko and LuquEt4, beat G3X FC 4-3 in their opener and lost 4-2 to Capim FC. A win at 19:00 would give them two victories in Group B.

Group B leaders Capim FC face Nyvelados FC

Jon Vlogs, Luva de Pedreiro and Racha’s team beat DesimpaiN on Shootouts and came from behind against Dendele FC, with Racha scoring a President Penalty. Their goalkeeper, Marcos ‘Bolivia’, has made more saves than anyone in the Kings Cup Brazil: 24.

Nyvelados FC, run by Falcão and Nyvi Estephan, have conceded 19 goals in two games: a 10-3 loss in the Challenger and a 9-2 defeat to G3X FC. Ivo Alves, their goalkeeper, scored two of their goals on Matchday 2.

G3X FC v Dibrados FC decides the Challenger

If Dibrados FC win, Group A take the Challenger series 3-0, the series that decides which group winner goes straight into the Semi-Finals. If G3X FC win, Group B cut it to 2-1 and keep the series alive for the last two matchdays.

G3X FC, run by Gaules and Kelvin, come off a 9-2 win over Nyvelados FC with a hat-trick from Thiago ‘TH’ and two goals from Aleix Martí, the MVP. Dibrados FC, the team of Allan Stag and Lucas Tylty, beat LOUD SC on Shootouts on Matchday 1 and lost 4-2 to Podpah Funkbol Clube despite two goals from Well Andrade. Matchday 4 follows on Monday 9 November.

Capim FC can secure qualification

Capim FC will qualify if they beat Nyvelados FC, including via Shootouts. If DesimpaiN also beat Dendele FC, Capim FC will secure a top-two finish in Group B.

A Dibrados FC win in the Challenger guarantees four qualifying places for Group A and three for Group B, with the eventual Group A winners going straight to the Semi-Finals. Dibrados FC must still earn their own qualification through the group standings. No team can be eliminated on this matchday.
