A historic clash in Brazil’s Serie B
The first-ever official match between Amazonas FC and CA Paranaense PR sees the visitors arrive as the clear favorites to win, according to the Amazonas FC vs CA Paranaense PR odds. Amazonas FC are available at +245, Paranaense are +120 and the draw at +230 represents a massive underdog.
It’s a historical clash for both sides, with the hosts either newly promoted or a perennial struggler in Brazil’s Serie B table, this should be a competitive game with Amazonas FC vs CA Paranaense PR prediction likely to be in favor of Paranaense being ahead of the home side in the standings come the end of the season.
Without specific managers mentioned, we can assume that Paranaense’s boss will try to create a disciplined, well-organised unit that is able to exploit the space in behind with rapid transitions, typical of the Serie B in Brazil. Meanwhile, Amazonas will likely opt for a pragmatic setup, either a 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-2 which provides a compact nature and a solid defensive structure.
An attractive clash between styles
Athletico Paranaense have been in mixed form lately, registering two solid wins against Remo Belem and Goianiense but suffering consecutive losses to Coritiba FC PR and Avai. The former two games showed how the team can control proceedings in the middle of the park and how they’re able to utilise their quality wide players to break through compact defences.
For the second two matches, they were exposed defensively and failed to dominate possession, which could be a recipe for disaster against a well-disciplined team.
If the coach has a message for his team, it will be for the centre-backs to be aware of the counter-attacking danger of Amazonas and for the defensive midfielders to get across to counter it. Meanwhile, for Amazonas, their top scorer will look to trouble the opposition defence while their creative midfielders will aim to unlock the well-organised visitors.
This Amazonas FC vs CA Paranaense PR preview suggests that the tactical battle could be crucial to determining the outcome.
Amazonas can make it difficult
We’re going for under 2.5 as our main bet in this game. The Amazonas FC vs CA Paranaense PR prediction leans towards a low-scoring affair due to both teams’ defensive abilities.
The clash of styles should lead to a more defensive game of soccer and we think the compact structure of Amazonas FC will frustrate the more ambitious CA Paranaense.
Given that the latter have the better squad depth and recent top-flight experience, we’re siding with them to edge this historical match.
However, according to the Amazonas FC vs CA Paranaense PR betting tips, Amazonas FC have home advantage and need to keep the pressure on in the survival or rise, so they’ll make it a tough game!
