Venue: Estádio Germano Krüger (10632 seats)

Very important clash in the bottom part of the Serie B, with both Operário PR and Londrina going through more tension than delight. This game is a classic "six-pointer" with the host team placed 14th and the away team in 17th spot.

Insights:
  • Operário PR is in the worst form (0-1-5)
  • Londrina have the most conceded goals in the first half (20) in Serie B

Londrina could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Paranaense 1 game only three sleeps ago. That game, against Cascavel CR, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Londrina.

A 0-3 defeat away at Guarani before that.
