AI match recap

Londrina enter under heavy pressure and with fresh uncertainty through midfield and at right-back. Criciúma arrive with renewed momentum, a more settled spine and Marcelo Hermes available again, although the travelling squad has its own defensive selection question. Expect the visitors to control longer spells through the middle, while Londrina lean on home urgency, direct attacks and set-pieces. The contest is likely to turn on whether the hosts can keep Otero and Fellipe Mateus from receiving freely between the lines.

Head-to-head analysis

Criciúma have had the better of the recent series, and the fixture has usually been decided by narrow margins rather than open exchanges. The earlier meeting this campaign followed that same tight pattern.

Injuries and absences

João Vitor’s suspension is the clearest reshaping absence: Londrina lose a key link between midfield recovery and attacking arrivals. Portuga’s unresolved thigh issue and Nino Paraíba’s likely absence could further force Micale into a less familiar right side and midfield unit.
