The last direct confrontation between these two teams, on 14-10-2017, ended with the victory of Londrina by (0-2). Despite being a match between 11 th and 14 th of the table, it is actually a match between the 12 th best team in home matches and the 7 th best in away matches.
Londrina:
The home team is currently in the 11 th position of the league, with 12 points won, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Coritiba, by (3-2). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Figueirense by (1-1). This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, usually conquer as many points at home as outside. In his last matches he scored 6 goals and suffered 5 at home, against 2 scored and 5 suffered as a visitor. For the championship, Londrina won 7 points out of 12 possible points, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 4 home matches. In 9 matches in this tournament, they suffered the first goal 4 times and never got the comeback.
The Londrina has not yet found its best football in Serie B, as it has been acting quite irregularly and is looking for a recovery in its stadium to get closer to the zone of access to the first division. The team has as its biggest problem the inefficiency of its offensive sector, which scored only 8 goals, being the worst in the competition, but the defense also needs adjustments, since it suffered 8 goals in the last four days. These numbers help explain the campaign below what was expected, even more so for a team that fought for access in the last two seasons. Playing in their stadium, Londrina comes from a great victory over Coritiba, one of the strongest teams in the championship, and it should be noted that in the last 3 matches in this condition both teams scored, so it is a team that usually attack a lot in this type of situation, but with that ends up leaving many spaces in his defense. For the confrontation with Juventude, the coach Marquinhos Santos will not be able to count on Silvio and Germano, both for suspension, being important absences in the defensive sector.
Juventude:
The away team is currently in the 14 th position of the league, with 11 points won, after 2 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Guarani, by (1-0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Atlético GO, by (2-2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, with 5 goals scored and 5 conceded in away matches, against 6 goals scored and 7 conceded at home. In the last away game in this competition, they tied in by (2-2) against San Bento. In the last 4 away matches Juventude has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 5 points out of 12 possible. The team has conceded goals in 7 of the last 9 matches, so they have not presented great defensive solidity, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 9 matches for this competition.
Juventude are campaigning less than expected in Serie B, they come from 6 games of invincibility, but tied 4 of those games and need to conquer more wins to leave the bottom of the table, since it is only 4 points of the descent zone. The visiting team has a medium attack, which scored 11 goals and is the eighth best of the competition, while the defense suffered 12 goals and is the sixth worst, so much that it suffered at least 2 goals in 2 of the last 3 days. Juventude come from 2 draws and it should be noted that they only scored goals in 1 of their 4 matches in this type of situation, being a team that creates good scoring opportunities, even away from their domains, but has a somewhat weak defense and that he finds great problems, both in the set pieces and in the plays in speed. For the game against Londrina, coach Julinho Camargo has no problems in the starting lineup and goes to the field with what he has of better.
