Fluminense host Coritiba in Serie A, with the home side having just thrashed their opponents 3-1 in their latest league match, while the visitors just finished a game with a 0-5 defeat. The two teams' conditions before the match are therefore clearly different, even though their positions in the table are not far apart. Fluminense sit 4th with 48 points from 28 matches, this season winning 13, drawing 9, losing 6, scoring 44, conceding 36, while Coritiba are 9th with 38 points, winning 10, drawing 8, losing 10, scoring 37, conceding 43. The home side's point to watch is a defence that concedes as much as 28% of all its goals late in games, while the visitors have not beaten anyone in 3 straight matches, and their defence in the 61-75 minute period also leaks often. According to the expected lineups, Fluminense are likely to send out the same set that just won, controlling midfield with clearly superior possession to their opponents based on the last 10 matches (55.8% versus 42.9%). The game is likely to open with the home side pressing from the start of the first half, but the goal may not come yet, because in recent first halves both teams have not scored much, and it should then bloom late in the second half when Coritiba start to open up their game.
