The visiting Guarani side should be favourites in this visit to CRB, as the away team holds a 8 point advantage from their 33 league games this season.

The hosts CRB saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Serie B. Thankfully the previous game, versus Confiança, was also a home game here at Estádio Rei Pelé. The away team is better rested.

It's quite the trip for Guarani when visiting CRB as the cities are 2400 kilometers apart.

Guarani are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

CRB form and stats

Overall Serie B stats at home this season for CRB are 7-5-3 (wins-draw-losses).

A draw after 90 minutes last time out for CRB, who played 0-0 against Confiança. That match was also played at this venue (Estádio Rei Pelé). In the game before, an away victory match versus Avai with a 1-0 scoreline.

There will be little rest for CRB after this match as they are travelling to Operário PR for a Serie B game in only three days.

CRB are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 15 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. CRB have only conceded 11 from their league home games.

Guarani form and stats

5-4-7 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Guarani in their Serie B matches away.

Guarani's last game was the home draw against Ponte Preta (1-1). A loss against America Mineiro was the result prior to that, in a home game.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Guarani manager F. de Oliveira Conceição as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Cuiaba.

The attacking power of Guarani when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 16 league matches away. Guarani have conceded 20 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

CRB and Guarani have met before this season: Guarani - CRB 3-1. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for CRB, three draws and five wins for Guarani. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
