Criciuma
DWLDLL
Criciuma will be looking to improve on their last outing here following the 6-0 Copa do Brasil defeat in their last game at the hands of Red Bull Bragantino.
In that match, Criciuma had 51% possession and 12 shots at goal with 1 on target. Red Bull Bragantino had 19 attempts on goal with 8 on target. Eduardo Sasha (9'), Lucas Barbosa (22', 53', 68') and Thiago Borbas (61', 88') scored for Red Bull Bragantino.
Criciuma haven’t made the most of their chances in more recent games. Their sum of goals equals just 4 vs opponents over their previous 6 outings. In those games, Criciuma have also seen the number of goals that have gone against them total 5. Previous results aside, we must now wait to see whether the trend might continue on in this match.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Criciuma:
- are undefeated in their previous 3 home league matches.
- have not won at home in their last 2 league games.

Their prior results show that Coritiba:

Team News: Coritiba
Thanks to a largely healthy squad, there’s only the lone fitness problem for the Coritiba boss Mozart Santos to be concerned with. Rodrigo Moledo (Knock) won’t be playing here.
🔮
Prediction
Coritiba may well find it hard to score against this Criciuma team who we think might well score one, at least.
We’re therefore expecting a highly competitive game with a 1-0 winning score for Criciuma when all is said and done.
Will be interesting to see how this one goes.
