  • Londrina have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It's no vacation for neither Vila nor Londrina 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.

These teams have little in common geographically as Londrina have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Vila Nova are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Londrina are struggling to avoid relegation.
