Match preview: Athletic vs Volta Redonda
Athletic and Volta Redonda will compete at the Raimundo Sampaio Stadium in a fifth-round Serie B clash. The recent head-to-head encounters between these two teams reflect a level playing field, with both sides recording two victories in their last four face-offs. Their last encounter on 19 April 2024 saw Volta Redonda triumph with a score of 0-2. In this upcoming match, the home advantage could prove significant, given Athletic’s contrasting home and away form.
Team analysis: Athletic
Currently sitting at the bottom of the table in 20th place, the home team has unfortunately not secured any points, suffering four losses thus far. In their penultimate match, they fell to Criciúma (4-0) and lost again to Chapecoense (1-0) in their most recent outing. Athletic has shown a distinct bias towards home performance, with their recent record of 30 games revealing 5 wins, 1 draw, and 9 losses as visitors, scoring 16 goals and conceding 25; conversely, at home, they have notched up 10 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, with 32 goals scored and 18 conceded. In their latest ten home games, Athletic has amassed 6 victories against 4 defeats.
This competition has not been kind to them, as they are currently on a four-match losing streak. Their defensive frailties have been glaring, conceding at least one goal in each of their last four matches. Matches hosted by Athletic tend to be high-scoring; 15 of their last 21 fixtures have seen over 2.5 goals. In 15 games, they have conceded the first goal on six occasions and have turned the score around just once.
Athletic is enduring a troubling start to Serie B, with a series of defeats coupled with the leakiest defence in the league. The team must respond urgently, and playing at home could be crucial in their quest for points. Correcting defensive issues and enhancing tactical solidity is imperative. Trust levels may be shaken, but determination and extra effort on the pitch are required. A positive result could spark a recovery and ease external pressures. The fans are looking for a more combative and disciplined approach in this round.
Team analysis: Volta Redonda
The visiting team sits in 19th place, having recorded 1 draw and 3 losses, without securing any points. In their last match, they held a goalless draw at home, but prior to that, they fell to CRB (1-0) away. Their performance indicates little variation regardless of venue; in the last 30 games, they have achieved 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses when playing away, scoring 14 goals and conceding 20. At home, their record is slightly better with 7 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses, netting 16 goals while conceding 11. Across all competitions, Volta Redonda’s last 10 matches have resulted in 3 wins, 1 draw, and 6 losses.
In this competition, they have not won any of their last four matches. Notably, they have conceded goals in 3 of those fixtures, highlighting a lack of defensive robustness, while their attack has struggled, failing to score in the last four competitive matches. Only once in 15 games have they turned the match around when conceding first. They also suffer from a specific vulnerability during away matches, having conceded 5 of their 14 goals between minutes 46 and 60.
While Volta Redonda is still in search of their first win, they managed to earn their first point in the last round, which is a modest step towards recovery. However, addressing their offensive inefficacy is critical, as they have yet to find the back of the net in the championship. To obtain a positive outcome, improving their playmaking and finishing will be essential. Even when on the road, the team is determined to compete with intensity and strategic focus, with this match likely to be more physically demanding than technically refined, necessitating attention to detail and capitalising on any opportunities that arise.
The best prediction for Athletic vs Volta Redonda
Under 1.5 goals in the 1st half (live betting)
Under 3.5 goals (prediction for live, double or triple bet)
Under 3.0 Asian goals (risky prediction)
