Coritiba are sitting at joint top of the table,they are the hottest team of late,though. As they are coming off 6 straight home wins on a run,this is a good occasion for them to extend that winning run up to 7 games in a row. Considering that they are the best home team of campaign,they already shown they were more than capable of grabbing all 3 points at home court. Apart from 2 suspended midfielders Donizete and Rafinha,Coritiba are able to select from a full squad.
Battling for relegation
Vila Nova secured their place out of relegation zone thanks to their 3 wins in last 6 games but not safe yet. They are leading the last 4 teams with 5 points within 9 games to go but considering that there is not a big quality gap between last 4 seeded teams and Vila Nova,they are still feeling the danger and need as most points as they can take in order to avoid relegation. Davi Ceara is suspended , Carlos Alberto and Pedro Junior are slight doubts.
Goals for both sides.
Vila Nova will be playing for a draw and they are supposed to start the game cautiously. But Coritiba will be playing to break their resistance by an early goal as they did in previous home games. Vila Nova,then,will be in need of scoring the equaliser and that`s a style of play which they are not used to. Home team looks big faves but i can`t trust,hence i go for 4 or more goals in game. It could be even easier should Vila Nova score first. Price is really tempting.
