Only a win will satisfy the Paraná supporters in this Estádio Durival de Britto e Silva clash with Náutico, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Serie B table.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Náutico have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Paraná form and stats
Paraná have performed here at Estádio Durival de Britto e Silva this season with 4 wins from 7 Serie B matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 1.
Paraná faced defeat in their previous match, away at Botafogo SP (0-1). Before that, Paraná drew at home versus Chapecoense.
The manager A. Aal will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to CSA in only four days.

Náutico form and stats
1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Náutico playing as the away team in the Serie B this season. Náutico has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Náutico are looking to quickly end their 192 minutes long goal drought in the Serie B.
Náutico might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Confianca proved too strong as Náutico slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Itaipava Arena Pernambuco. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Cuiabá wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Serie B trip to América Mineiro.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Náutico as they have only managed to score 4 times from 5 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Náutico have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.
