Goias vs Coritiba
Brazil – Serie A
Date: Wednesday, 9 September 2020
Kick-off at 22:00 UK/ 23:00 CET
Venue: Estádio Serra Dourada.
Goias:
The Goiás EC is the biggest club in the mid-western Brazil. However, one looks in vain for a sweeping success in the history of the Green. Only in 1990 did not Goias reach the final of the Copa do Brasil.
As a newcomer of the year 2018, the club, founded in 1943, was able to re-establish itself directly in the tenth Serie A. As at the end of the table, the club, also known as Esmeraldino (in German: a little emerald), has nothing to do with relegation and, with just four points behind, eventually almost qualified for the Copa Libertadores qualifying.
So it is not surprising that those responsible could be anything but satisfied with a weak start to the season, when coach Ney Franco only managed to score one point from its first three games.
Under Thiago Larghi, the first competitive game 2-0 just two days after he worked at home against Atletico Goianiense. Since then, there are three competitive defeats in a row. So Goias FC currently holds the red lanterns of Serie A.
This is all the more surprising that in the run-up to the match between Goias and Coritiba, the possibility of betting still turn towards the side of the house. After all, there were two defeats for the Greens in the last two competitive matches against people of Paraná, which therefore are under pressure in this match.
Meanwhile, a strong home record from the previous season positively. Last year, Esmeraldino nothing to do with the degradation due to Goias won 11 of his 19 matches in western Brazil. This is exactly where it is now finally time to get back to work.
Coritiba:
The Coritiba is one of the flagships of the state of Paraná. The club, also known as Coxa, has won the state championship in the Paranaense 38 times. In 1985 it was also enough to win the first and only Brazilian championship to date.
In the last two years, however, the club, which was founded in 1909, had to bob around in the second division. Under Jorginho, however, returned to Serie A to be successful last year.
From the perspective of the proponents, it is all the more annoying that the club, where the financial situation is not clear for a long time after the departure, could not agree with Jorginho on a new contract.
However, after Eduardo Barroca had an early rumble evident in Serie A and Coritiba holding red lanterns league with four defeats in late August, those responsible draw the consequences, shot successors Jorginho and now offered a successful coach them paper Job desired to go back to the bench coaching.
The move has paid off, as Coritiba FC scored seven out of twelve possible points in four league games under new old coach. Particularly important is a stable defense, which only allowed two goals under Jorginho. A third less than in the previous four games.
However, offensive Coxa stay two times in a row without a goal itself, which is why in Goias win against Coritiba tip on a green-white point is by no means a sure-fire success. All in all, we still believe that the traditional club in the mid-west of the country, the increase will be at least at least end the peat pause.
