Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Atlético GO - Paraná!

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Atlético GO and Paraná.

It's quite the trip for Paraná when visiting Atlético GO as the cities are 1200 kilometers apart.

Atlético GO are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Paraná is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

W L W D D

Atlético GO form and stats

8 victories, 7 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Atlético GO have to build on here at Serra Dourada in the Serie B.

Happy days for Atlético GO in their previous game, a Serie B match away at Oeste (placed 15th) that ended with a 4-0 victory. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at CRB.

As mentioned above, Atlético GO "killed" Oeste in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Atlético GO have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won 6 times, drawn 4 and lost 2.

The Atlético GO fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 24 in 17 matches. Atlético GO are not conceding a lot of goals here at Serra Dourada in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 13 from 17 matches.

Paraná form and stats

The visitors are W7-D3-L7 on the road this term. That's in the Serie B.

The supporters enjoyed Paraná's previous game versus Sao Bento (placed 20th), a Serie B 2-1 win played at home. A draw for Paraná before that, at their own venue hosting Vitoria (0-0).

Paraná are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 5 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of twelve matches.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Serie B trip to Criciúma.

Paraná find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 18 goals from 17 away fixtures in the league. As opposed to that, Paraná have seen the ball go into their own net 22 times on the road.
