Parana take on the visitors Fluminense at “Estadio Vila Capanema” in the round nine of the Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played in Curitiba on Tuesday, June 5th.
Parana produce disastrous results at the start of the season. The side doesn’t meet the expectations and is likely to hold the relegation battle in this season. “Tricolor da Vila” currently occupies the last place in the elite division standings with only three points earned after eight encounters behind. The club’s offense is lacking top-class performers, thus, it has managed to score just three goals so far, however, its defense doesn’t look stronger with 12 goals conceded. In the previous tackles hosted at their ground Parana have got two draws against Atletico-PR and Gremio with the same 0:0 scoreline, but lost to Sport Recife 1:2.

Meanwhile, Fluminense show quite solid football each season while in this one the side looks rather promising and impresses a lot with its game. At the moment “Fluzao” is sitting on the seventh position in the Serie A table, having picked up 14 points in eight clashes played. The team produces rather strong football in attack, having scored 11 goals already, still, its defense is also doing alright with seven goals conceded. In the latest battles conducted on the road Fluminense collected 0:0 draw against Gremio, 1:2 defeat from Botafogo RJ and 0:2 failure against Nacional Potosi.
Parana have not been broken by Fluminense across three consecutive head-to-heads already. At this point the upcoming hosts stay in horrible conditions unlike “Fluzao” which looks a bit tougher and may count for some points gained in the Tuesday fight.
Prediction for the match: Fluminense to win with +0.5 Asian handicap (X2).
