CRB form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for CRB so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-4 (win-draw-lose).

CRB go into this game after a win, the home game against Vila Nova that ended 2-1. Diego Torres got a match rating of 8.3 in that game, top player of the team. Torres scored one goal, served one assist, hit four key passes and dribled passed the opponent 3 of 3 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Guarani wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of CRB when being an outsider away as they are today, we find five matches with the visitors losing five times, drawing zero and winning zero games.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the CRB manager A. Aal as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Sampaio Correa.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting CRB as they have only managed to score 5 times from 6 away games in the league. CRB's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 9 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last eight matches): Coritiba three wins, two draws and CRB three victories. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
