Coritiba form and stats

10 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Coritiba have to build on here at Estádio Major Antônio Couto Pereira in the Serie A.

A good away victory last time out for Coritiba, who won 1-0 against Juventude (placed 20th). Finally, a league win after four fixtures without one. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Ferreira when Régis scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 80th minute. Midfield player Manga got a match rating of 8.03 in that game, the max score being 10. Manga served one assist, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 24 successful passes (of 30 total).

Heartbreak before that as Coritiba lost 1-3 at Fortaleza's place.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Coritiba as they have a new game in only three days, a Serie A match thankfully also at home. Corinthians are visiting.

Coritiba has scored 22 league goals at home this season, in 17 matches. Coritiba have only conceded 14 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
