Operário PR and Paraná have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Serie B.
- Operário PR have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Paraná have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
It's no vacation for neither Operário nor Paraná as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Operário PR form and stats
Operário PR have collected 16 points from their Serie B home games so far after 4-4-3.
Operário are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 181 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by D. Coutinho).
No payout for Operário in their previous match, an away game at CSA that ended in defeat 0-1. Ahead of that match, Operário lost 0-1 at home to América Mineiro.
The manager G. Gusmão will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Brasil de Pelotas in only three days.
Operário has scored 15 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. From these home matches, Operário have conceded only 10 goals.
Paraná form and stats
Paraná have only collected 9 points from their away games in the Serie B, after 2-3-6 (11 played). Recent form does not give Paraná much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Operário PR will be a tough nut to crack. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on A. Aal, the Paraná manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
Paraná might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Guarani proved too strong as Paraná slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estádio Durival de Britto e Silva. Prior to that match, the Paraná manager A. Aal faced defeat when travelling to Juventude and losing 0-5.
Paraná were so close to getting something from the game against Guarani, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal five minutes into overtime.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Vitoria in just four days.
The attacking power of Paraná when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 11 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. For Paraná, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
