This Thursday, September 5th, brace yourself for an exhilarating match between Cuiabá and Juventude at the Arena Pantanal stadium in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. The highly anticipated game will kick off at 23:00 (UTC) in the prestigious Brazil Serie A league. The skies will be clear and the temperature a pleasant 83 degrees (F), providing the perfect atmosphere for some top-notch football. The last encounter between these two teams in the Serie A on August 13, 2022 saw Cuiabá emerge as the victors with a 1-0 win. Will history repeat itself, or will Juventude make a comeback? Be there to find out!
Despite facing a string of defeats and a lackluster goal scoring record at their home ground, Arena Pantanal, Cuiabá remains a formidable force with a full and healthy squad. In their most recent Serie A match, they were defeated 0-5 by Palmeiras. However, there is still hope for Cuiabá as striker I. Pitta, who has an impressive tally of 7 goals this season, is fit and ready to take on their opponents. While their track record against equally ranked teams stands at 0 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss, with an average of 0.25 goals scored and 0.5 conceded, Cuiabá is determined to turn things around in their upcoming match.
Juventude is currently showing impressive form, triumphing in 3 of their last 5 games. The team has been consistently scoring goals, netting a total of 9 in their past 5 matches. Placed at number 13 on the league table, they have accrued 28 points from 23 games, securing 7 wins, 7 draws, and 9 losses. With a full, uninjured squad, the away team is confident heading into this match. Their previous game saw them emerge victorious in a 2-1 victory against Corinthians in the Copa do Brasil, with R. Carrillo leading the way with a goal.
In their most recent encounters, the two teams have had an average of 2.0 goals per game over the past 6 matches. So far, they have faced off 6 times, with Cuiabá coming out on top 4 times and drawing in 2. On the other hand, Juventude has yet to secure a win against their opponents.
Cuiabá has the opportunity to elevate their position in the standings with a victory, potentially securing a None spot. This has the potential to greatly impact their standing for the upcoming season and serve as a driving force for the home team.
