Athletico Paranaense, Recent FormAthletico Paranaense manager Wesley Carvalho will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Bahia. During that encounter they had 49% possession and had 6 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 28 shots on goal.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 7, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 28 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games overall.
There will be mixed feelings from Furação, although undefeated in their last 13 league games at home, 2 of these games ended in a draw.
Vitor Roque will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Athletico Paranaense.
Vasco da Gama, Recent FormVasco da Gama were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 2-2 draw against Cruzeiro. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Cruzeiro's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Ramón Díaz will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 9 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 6 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games.
With an unbeaten league tally of 5 games from 6, their recent form should be viewed positively, especially with 3 wins thrown in.
On an individual basis, Pablo Vegetti will be looking to cause Athletico Paranaense some problems having scored 3 goals in Vasco da Gama's last 6 away games in the league.
It was not a positive ending for Vasco da Gama last time they met Athletico Paranaense in the league, with the game ending in a 0-2 defeat.
The O Gigante da Colina defence has struggled at Ligga Arena, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 7 visits. In the previous 2 league encounters between these two teams, O Gigante da Colina have failed to score a single goal against Athletico-PR.
Athletico-PR has had a good run of league results at home to Vasco, winning their last 6 meetings and being unbeaten in their last 15.
With both Vitor Roque (Ankle) and Arturo Vidal (Meniscus) being out for the rest of the season and Rômulo Cardoso da Cruz (Thigh), Madson Ferreira dos Santos (Thigh), Pedro Henrique (Broken ankle), Kaique Rocha (Thigh), Alex Santana (Thigh) and Pablo Teixeira (Thigh) all unavailable in the shorter term, Athletico-PR manager Wesley Carvalho will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
Ramón Díaz has a number of injury concerns in his Vasco squad to contend with: Riquelme Carvalho Araújo (Cruciate ligament), Patrick De Lucca (Cruciate ligament), Erick Marcus (Thigh) and Luca Orellano (Broken hand)
