Coritiba take on the visitors Sao Paolo in the round 10 match of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Friday, June 10th at Estádio Couto Pereira (Curitiba)
Curitiba will clearly try to get rid of Brazil's 'football lift' label
"Glorioso", despite the high-profile nickname, since 2005 managed to fall into Serie B four times. But, to their credit, they managed to spend a little time there, a maximum of a couple of years in a row. The last time there was a minimum, only 1 season of 2021. And suddenly - a very good start at the level of Brasileirao. Yes, Paraguayan Gustavo Moringo's wards lack consistency, and they lost in almost half of the matches. But, on the other hand, they win quite often, actively gaining points. This allows them to stay not just away from the relegation zone, but even take positions above the "equator" of the table. Against this background, 1-1 with Ceara on the road already looks like a setback.

Sao Paulo hopes to show something significant under Rogerio Ceni. "Tricolor" is a 6-time champion of the country and a team that more often than others finished in the top three. The Brazilians also won every possible international club tournament in South America. However, their most recent achievement was the success at the Copa Sudamericana 2012. 10 years of drought is another test for the grandee. They decided to interrupt the black streak with the help of a local legend, Rogerio Ceni. This is a cult goalkeeper-scorer who already worked here as a coach in 2017. Not particularly successful, but neither did his successors shine. Last season brought only 13th place in Brasileirao. Against this background, now the team looks good. They confidently won the Copa Sudamericana group with 16 points. Yes, and in Serie A almost never lose, however, there are many draws. So with Avai in the last round it was only 1-1.
The season before last, when Coritiba ended up being relegated from Serie A, they managed not to lose to Sao Paulo. Both fights then ended in draws 1-1. Sao Paulo is considered the favorite, but they are not perfect, and Coritiba is not bad this season. We bet on "total over 2.0".
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 scored goals.
