Team News

Athletico Paranaense
Sport Recife
  • Thiago Heleno and Richard are suspended for the game here after swearing at the referee last time out.
  • António Oliveira will lead the team out again as Manager Autuori had COVID-19.
  • Iago Maidana and Betinho return after being unavailable last time out.

Prediction

  • At one stage it looked like Athletico PR was going to be fighting for survival, however, a positive upturn in performances has led them to a place in next season's Copa Sudamericana. Athletico can finish between 9th-12th place, they will be hoping to finish inside the top half. Last time out, Furacão suffered a 1-0 loss away from home against Gremio, ending their Copa Libertadores qualification ambitions.
  • Sport will be delighted with their season as they achieved their target of avoiding the drop. They can still qualify for the Copa Sudamericana with a win here or hope fellow Northeastern sides, Bahia and Fortaleza dont. At the weekend, Sport suffered a 3-2 defeat to Atletico MG after conceding in the dying moments of the game, they will be eager to bounce back here.
