The upcoming match in the Brazilian Serie B is set to take place on Saturday, 30 September. The teams facing off will be Avai and Sport Recife, with the referee being Brazil's own Caio Max Augusto Vieira. I'm placing my chips firmly on an away win.
Avai currently sits at the 16th spot in the Serie B table, having secured 30 points in 29 matches played. Their last face-off was against Juventude on 26 September where they met a disappointing 0:2 loss. Juventude managed to knock in two goals during the initial half becoming prime contributors at the 24th and 30th minute. At the moment, Avai's record in the last five matches stands at two losses, one win, and two draws. Their overall goal balance is 23 goals scored and 39 conceded.
Sport Recife continues to demonstrate an impressive display in the ongoing Serie B season. In their latest match on 24 September, they asserted their superiority against Londrina with a convincing 4:0 victory. Jorginho set the pace at the 31st minute with a goal, placing Sport Recife in the lead. This was followed up by Facu Labandeira doubling their lead with a goal at the 50th minute. Noteworthy contributions came from Michel Lima and Fabio Matheus at the 74th and 86th minute, respectively, affirming Sport Recife's dominance.
Sport Recife’s current ranking in the Serie B tournament is commendable. They stand second in the league after 29 matches, with a record of 15 wins, 6 losses, and 8 draws. So far, they have scored 44 goals and conceded 26, accumulating 5points. Their recent form in the last five matches includes two wins, two draws and one loss. Londrina, in contrast, has been struggling to find their footing. They sit in 19th place in the Serie B table after 30 matches and have secured 6 wins alongside a grim number of 18 losses, amounting to a total of 24 points.
As the guests are in the hunt for the championship and demonstrated an attacking football in their last match, I am predicting their victory.
