Coritiba vs Juventude Predictions

• Only one of Coritiba’s last six home games has had three or more goals
• Juventude have netted just half a dozen times in seven away matches
• Coritiba have only lost twice in eight outings at Couto Pereira

Can Coritiba build on recent win?

Coritiba ended a six match winless run last time out when they beat Fortaleza 2-1, extending their home record to five wins and a draw from eight matches.

Gustavo Morínigo’s side have achieved all those victories despite netting just 11 times at Couto Pereira, with only one of their last six outings there including three or more goals.

Indeed, that record extends to just three matches out of ten when considering all venues, while they have kept nine home clean sheets in 17 fixtures in all competitions.

Juventude heading for trouble?

Juventude sit in the Brasileiro relegation zone and have picked up just one win from seven attempts on the road, largely down to scoring only six goals.

Currently managerless, only three of their last ten away fixtures have contained three or more goals, while they have failed to net at all in two of the last three.

On top of that, a run of just two victories in 15 at all venues tells its own story, and this could be another tough contest for the visitors.

I predict there will be fewer than three goals in the match with Coritiba winning, selecting 2-0 as a correct score prediction.
