Sao Paulo, Recent FormThe 2-0 home defeat to Palmeiras will not have sat easily with the São Paulo squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 66% possession and managed 26 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Palmeiras who had 10 attempts and 4 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 8 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have had a good run of form at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
Athletico Paranaense, Recent FormAthletico Paranaense manager Paulo Turra will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against América Mineiro. They achieved 49% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against América Mineiro's tally of 21 efforts at goal, 12 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Turra will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 8 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Christian Alves Cardoso has scored in each of Athletico Paranaense's last league game away from home.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 1-0 win for Athletico Paranaense.
São Paulo have managed to keep a clean sheet against Furação in each of their previous 3 meetings at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo.
In this away league fixture, Athletico-PR has not won in the last 3 times they have played São Paulo at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo.
São Paulo manager Dorival Júnior has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. André Anderson (Groin), Jandrei Chitolina Carniel (Hand), Talles Costa (Meniscus), Welington Damascena Santos (Ankle), Giuliano Galoppo (Cruciate ligament), João Moreira (Knee) and Igor Vinícius (Groin) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Fernando Fernandinho (Muscle) and Pablo Teixeira (Hip) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Paulo Turra will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
