Coritiba form and stats

With 3 Serie A wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Coritiba are certainly not brimming with confidence. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Coritiba, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

It's back home for Coritiba, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Internacional away with the result 4-3. Bianqui, Garcez and Robson (2) found the net in that victory. At last, a league victory after three games without one. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Vasconcelos loved the game against Internacional. With a stunning seven saves the goalkeeper played a huge part in the 4-3 victory. Midfielder Robson was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.25 (out of ten) in that game. Robson scored two goals, served one assist and hit one key pass.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Santos (1-2).

If you like betting on "both teams to score": A review of the 12 latest league matches shows that 9 of them had goals from both sides.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Coritiba, as the Serie A home game vs Goias is only four days away.

With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Coritiba defense is not exactly impregnable. 22 goals conceded from 14 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Grêmio form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Grêmio so far with only 15 points returning home. The records show 4-3-8 (win-draw-lose).

Grêmio play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-3 victory visiting América Mineiro (placed 20th). A loony match with an abundance of goals last time out for Grêmio, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that game, will this game be as gleeful? Suárez, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 9.23. Suárez scored one goal, signed up for two assists, hit five key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

A home win before that, celebrating 3-2 vs Flamengo.

Will there be lots of goals? This team have played 5 consecutive league matches all with at least three goals (over 2.5 goals).

After this away game Grêmio return home for a Serie A game against Bahia. That game is only three sleeps after this.
