In a critical clash from the 37th round of the Brazilian Série B, Chapecoense hosts Coritiba at Arena Condá on Sunday. Here's a betting tip focused on the number of goals in this encounter.
Match Preview
Chapecoense, known as "Verdão," has endured a disappointing season, currently sitting in 15th place. With 41 points from 36 matches, they’ve managed just 10 wins against 15 losses, leaving them a precarious three points above the relegation zone.
In their last outing, Gilson Kleina's men secured a 1-1 draw away against Sport Recife. After conceding early in the second half, Chapecoense salvaged a point with a late equalizer in the 84th minute. Over their last five games, they’ve registered two wins and two losses, reflecting an inconsistent run of form.
Coritiba, on the other hand, occupies a comfortable mid-table position with no real stakes left in their season. Their recent form shows a lack of motivation, with three losses in their last four outings.
In their previous game, Coritiba suffered a 0-2 home defeat to league champions Santos, despite putting up a respectable performance. Away from home, their record is subpar, with just four wins and 11 losses in 18 matches.
