Important shoot-out in the bottom part of the Serie B, with both CRB and Londrina going through more angst than delight. This fixture is a classic "six-pointer" with the host team placed 14th and the visitors in 17th spot.
- CRB have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Londrina is in the worst form (0-1-5)
It's quite the trip for Londrina when visiting CRB as the cities are 2700 kilometers apart.
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 CRB and Londrina.
CRB form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Serie B this season. CRB have only managed 1 win, 3 draws and 2 losses from their games here at Estádio Rei Pelé.
CRB faced defeat in their previous match, away at Criciúma (1-2). The first setback in the shape of a defeat after going unbeaten through four league rounds. CRB's goalkeeper Silva was extremely busy against Criciúma, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning six saves.
Before that, CRB drew at home versus Ituano.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier CRB matches with similar probabilities have ended with 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats (from 4 games).
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for CRB, as the Serie B home game vs Sport Recife is only four days away.
On the other hand, CRB have conceded 8 goals.
Londrina form and stats
There's been little loot from Londrina's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 7 away games in the Serie B. Londrina only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.

A 0-0 draw at Avaí's stadium before that.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Londrina playing away, we found 4 games.
