A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Palmeiras fans are optimistic that the difference between 5th and Coritiba's 18th place in the table will show on the pitch.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Palmeiras form and stats
Palmeiras have played 7 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-4-1 (wins-draws-losses).
Palmeiras's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Sao Paulo (placed 3rd). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Botafogo (1-2).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Palmeiras as they are travelling to their away game against Fortaleza in the Serie A. That match is four days after this one.
The Palmeiras fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 7 matches. On the other hand, Palmeiras have conceded 9 goals.
Coritiba form and stats
There's been little loot from Coritiba's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 8 away games in the Serie A. Coritiba, who have the the worst goal difference (-9) in Serie A, only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Coritiba's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Coritiba's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Fortaleza that finished 0-0. Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Gremio's place.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Santos in just three days.
The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Coritiba struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 15 goals conceded from these games.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Palmeiras victories, two draws and five Coritiba wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, seven matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
