This could be an interesting match as Guarani have their presumed home advantage while Juventude are ahead 10 points in the Serie B table.

Insights:
  • Guarani is in the worst form (0-1-5)
  • Juventude has the most scored goals (51) in Serie B

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

Juventude have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Guarani are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Juventude are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
