Brusque
LLWLWW
Brusque will be looking for a repeat result of a 1-2 Copa do Brasil triumph vs Olaria.
It has been a rare occasion in recent games where Brusque have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Brusque have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 games, leaking 7 goals during that time.
Atletico PR
WWWLWL
Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Grêmio Novorizontino in Serie B action, Atletico PR and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.
In that game, Atletico PR managed 57% possession and 11 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. Gremio Novorizontino had 18 shots on goal with 4 on target. Pablo Dyego (11', 74') scored for Grêmio Novorizontino.
Atletico PR have been good when going forward in their most recent fixtures, scoring 11 goals in their last 6 matches. While their manager Maurício Barbieri will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Atletico PR can also improve defensively after being scored against in 5 of those same matches. That sort of pattern might not be continued into this next game, however.

Prediction
We’re of the view that Brusque should be able to score against this Atletico PR outfit, although one goal is unlikely to be enough.
We are therefore anticipating a narrow 1-2 winning score for Atletico PR at the end of the 90 minutes. It’s a very tough call.
