Match preview: Athletico PR vs CRB

Athletico PR and CRB are set to compete at the Arena de Baixada in a match from the 4th round of Serie B. Over the past three years, these teams have met directly just twice: once on 26 April 2023, which Athletico PR won 4-2, followed by a match on 12 April 2023, which CRB claimed with a 1-0 victory. It’s important to consider their home and away performances, as both sides have witnessed notably different results in their respective home and away matches.

Team analysis: Athletico PR

Following 2 wins and 1 loss, the home team occupies 5th place with 6 points. In their most recent match, they lost away to Cuiabá (2-1), having previously secured a home victory against Criciúma (2-1). Athletico PR has been more effective on home turf; their record in the last 30 matches shows 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses away, scoring 17 and conceding 18 goals, compared to 8 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses at home, scoring 26 and conceding 15. In their last 10 home fixtures, the team has recorded 6 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss. Their attack has been consistent, netting goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. Out of 15 games, they’ve only managed to turn around the score after conceding first on 1 occasion in 4 such instances. Notably, they conceded 7 out of 18 goals in the last 20 home matches between minutes 31-45.

After starting the Serie B campaign with two victories, the team is looking to regain momentum following their first defeat. When playing at home, maintaining an offensive stance while ensuring defensive stability will be critical. Against a capable opponent, focus and concentration will be key to avoid any unforeseen setbacks. The team aims to control possession, efficiently occupy space, and limit errors that could lead to counterattacks. Recovery will hinge on their performance balance, with intensity and emotional resilience during crucial moments.

Team analysis: CRB

After registering 3 wins, the away team sits in 4th place, also with 6 points. Their latest fixture saw them triumph over Volta Redonda at home (1-0), and they previously secured an away victory against Athletic Bilbao (1-2). Interestingly, this team has demonstrated stronger performances away from home compared to their own stadium—recording 7 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses in their last 30 matches as visitors, against 7 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses when hosting matches. In their last 10 outings across competitions, CRB has achieved 5 wins, 4 draws, and just 1 loss. However, they have allowed goals in 7 of their last 10 matches, indicating a need for defensive improvement, even though their attack has produced at least one goal in each of those fixtures. Out of 15 games, they conceded the first goal on 7 occasions and managed to recover the score only twice. Notably, they conceded 8 out of 20 goals in their last 20 away matches from minutes 16-30.

CRB acknowledges the challenges of facing Athletico PR on their home ground but is intent on securing vital points in the league. Their strategy will rely on a well-organised defensive setup, featuring strong marking and quick transitions as key elements. Aerial duels and set pieces might provide valuable opportunities to catch the opposition off guard. Striking the right balance between tactical discipline and offensive ambition will be crucial for a successful result. Avoiding errors with the ball and maintaining compactness will be essential in this confrontation.
