The visiting Santos side should be favourites in this visit to Coritiba, as the away team holds a 8 point advantage from their 16 league games this season.
It's no vacation for neither Coritiba nor Santos as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Coritiba form and stats
2 victories, 2 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Coritiba, who have the fewest scored goals (3) at home in Serie A, have to build on here at Estádio Major Antônio Couto Pereira in the Serie A. Two draws in a row at home now for Coritiba.
Coritiba enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Palmeiras's place. The match ended 3-1 with Robson (2) and Giovanni Augusto scoring. Before that, Coritiba drew at home versus Fortaleza.
The lack of attacking qualities in Coritiba means that they have only scored 3 goals in 7 league home games, less than half a goal per match. From these home matches, Coritiba have conceded only 4 goals.
Santos form and stats
3-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Santos in their Serie A matches away.
The manager A. Stival was unhappy after their last game, a Serie A match played at their home ground Estádio Urbano Caldeira. Santos suffered a 0-1 loss to Atlético GO (placed 9th). A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Gremio.
A quick return to home after this game, as Santos are hosting Defensa y Justicia in the Copa Libertadores only three days away.
Santos have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league. Santos have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - two - five (Coritiba wins - draws - Santos wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.Top Goalscorers
