Grêmio and Athletico PR have met many times in the league, and the home side has usually been the one to get the better result at their own ground. But this time the situation is different: Grêmio are near the bottom of the table, while Athletico PR are in the upper group and have just won their latest match. Grêmio went five league games without losing, three of them in a row, before stumbling to a 2-4 defeat, then came back to win 1-0 in their latest match. But overall this season they have not scored much and have conceded more than they should. At home they have won seven of sixteen matches and average fewer than two goals per game. Athletico PR, meanwhile, arrive with their attack clearly working better: they have scored fifty goals from thirty-two matches, and in their last five games they have both a 2-1 win and a 4-1 win mixed with a 0-2 defeat. This game is likely to see the home side forced to open up, because they need points to escape the danger zone, while Athletico PR will probably sit back and wait for chances to counter at speed. If Grêmio can hold the ball for long spells and not concede first, the game will be at a tempo the home side can control. But if they let the visitors have space to run into, the game will turn quickly.
