Coritiba vs Atletico Paranaense Prediction: There will be an exchange of goals

On Sunday, Coritiba will face Atletico Paranaense in the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship. Despite their status, the visitors are regarded as slight underdogs, which is difficult to agree with, considering Atletico Paranaense's personnel problems.

Coritiba

Coritiba has a four-match unbeaten streak. In June, the future hosts were unbeaten, drawing twice with Ceara and Sao Paulo, losing to Palmeiras, the league leaders, and Bragantino. Coritiba scored twice against the Bulls. On Matchday 13 of the Brasileirao, Coritiba is 12th in the Brazilian championship standings, only three points behind Atletico Mineiro in the Libertadores Cup zone. Importantly, Coritiba's third home record in Brazil is +4=1-1, 9-5 goal difference in six games.

Atletico Paranaense

Atletico Paranaense's unbeaten streak extends to eight matches. The most recent defeat for the Red and Black came on 15 May, when the Red and Black lost 1:2 to Fluminense at the Maracana. Since then, five wins and three draws are decent statistics for a team. It's also worth pointing out that the upcoming game is a derby, although it's not an international one like the Flamengo vs Fluminense game. In June, Atletico Paranaense played four games: a 3:1 victory over Juventude and draws against Santos, Fortaleza, and Corinthians. On the road, Atlético Paranaense has the eighth-best statistics in the division, +2=1-3, 5:8 goal difference.
