Juventude will be wanting a better result here after a 2-1 Serie B loss in their previous game against Grêmio Esportivo Brasil.

Taking a look at their past results, Juventude:

• are unbeaten in the league by Cruzeiro in their last 4 games.
• are undefeated in their last 6 home league matches.

Cruzeiro

DDLDWL

Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Oeste in Serie B competition, Cruzeiro will be aiming to make amends here.

The attacking players from Cruzeiro have struggled for goals over their previous 6 clashes, recording the poor return of just 4. In those matches, Celeste have also seen the collective goal tally of opposing teams equal 5. Let’s find out whether or not that trend will be continued on here.

Going into this contest, Cruzeiro have left without a victory over Juventude when they've played them away from home in the last 4 matches in the league. Not good at all.

👥 Head to head

A review of their prior head-to-head meetings going back to 01/10/2005 tells us that Juventude have won 3 of these & Cruzeiro 2, with the tally of drawn results standing at 1.

✨ Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Cruzeiro have the capability to get a goal against this Juventude lineup, although it realistically won’t be enough to avoid defeat.

Our selection here is for both teams to score in a 2-1 victory for Juventude at the end of this one. There shouldn’t be much in it, either way.
