Ponte Preta

LLWWLL

Londrina

LLDLLL 📉

After being beaten in their last game against São Bernardo in Serie B competition, Londrina and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that match, Londrina managed 53% possession and 13 shots at goal with 1 on target. The only player to score for Londrina was Moccelin (85'). For their opponents, Sao Bernardo got 8 attempts on goal with 3 on target. Amorim (7') was the scorer for São Bernardo.

It has become apparent that Londrina have had real problems scoring goals over their last 6 encounters, netting the poor return of just 3. In those matches, Tubarão have also seen the collective goal aggregate of opposing teams equal 11. It will be interesting to see if that trend can be sustained here.

Coming into this meeting, Londrina have not won away from home in their last 3 league matches.
