Cuiaba, Recent FormCuiaba will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Atletico Mineiro in which they suffered a 3-0 home defeat. Their share of possession in that meeting was 33%, while racking up 4 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target, in contrast to Atletico Mineiro, who had 13 shots on goal with 5 on target.
They have bagged 4 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 12 times in that period. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 4 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
Having clocked up 5 defeats from their previous 6 matches, recent form is something they will certainly be looking to change.
Clayson da Silva Vieira will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Cuiaba.
Palmeiras, Recent FormPalmeiras had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 0-0 draw against Sao Paulo. They achieved 43% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Sao Paulo's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
Manager Abel Ferreira will be pleased with his team's recent defensive record, having conceded just 2 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have concerns that his team are not scoring many goals, and therefore dropping points. When playing away from home, they have scored in 4 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
Palmeiras will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
With 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Endrick Moreira de Sousa has given the travelling Palmeiras support something to shout about on the road.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 0-2 win for Palmeiras.
Goals should be on the cards for Verdão in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Cuiaba in their last 5 meetings together. Dourado have struggled to keep Palmeiras at bay when these two teams have met at Arena Pantanal, during the last 3 times they have hosted Palmeiras in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Palmeiras has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Cuiaba in 5 games.
Cuiaba manager Luiz Fernando Iubel has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Max Alves da Silva (Thigh), Filipe Augusto (Muscle) and Lucas Mineiro (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Abel Ferreira has a number of injury concerns in his Palmeiras squad to contend with: Eduardo Dudu (Cruciate ligament), Zé Rafael (Back) and Bruno Rodrigues (Knee surgery)
