Londrina PR host Juventude at Estadio do Cafe in a Série B fixture that carries real weight for the visitors. Juventude sit third in the table with 36 points from 20 games and are firmly in promotion contention, while Londrina find themselves 18th with just 14 points and only three wins all season. The two sides met earlier in this same campaign, with Juventude winning 1-0, and they carry that momentum into Wednesday’s early-hours kickoff.
Watch Raí da Silva Pessanha in Juventude’s midfield — he has contributed a goal and consistent defensive work across five recent appearances — and keep an eye on Londrina’s forward William Pottker, who leads their attack with six free kick attempts and five shots over the last five matches despite the team’s struggles.
Hot stat: Juventude have committed 87 fouls across their last five matches, the highest in this fixture’s context, yet they have conceded just 11 goals in 20 league games this season — a sign that their physicality is controlled and purposeful.

Londrina PR vs Juventude Prediction
Juventude are the clear pick here. They have won four of their last seven matches, drawn two, and lost just one. Londrina, by contrast, have not won in five games, losing four of them. The form gap is significant, and the standings reflect it — Juventude are 24 points clear of Londrina in the table despite playing two more games.
Londrina have scored only two goals across their last five matches, and their attack has offered little. Pablo Dyego and Rai Nascimento have combined for just seven shots over four appearances each. Juventude’s defensive shape, built around a 4-1-4-1 with high interception numbers (51 across five matches), will suffocate that limited output. We predict a Juventude win and a low-scoring match.
Londrina average 54 fouls over five games compared to Juventude’s 87, but Juventude’s yellow card count (12 vs Londrina’s 7) shows they press the line. In a match where Londrina will likely sit deep and absorb pressure, expect a high foul count and a scrappy tempo. Juventude’s pass accuracy (1584 accurate passes from 1923 attempted) outpaces Londrina’s (1312 from 1596), and that ball control advantage will be the deciding factor in tight spaces.
- We predict Juventude to win — best value on the board given the form and standings gap.
- Under 2.5 goals is worth considering — Londrina have scored two goals in five games, and Juventude have kept clean sheets in three of their last five.
- Both teams to score: No — Londrina’s attack is too blunt to trouble a well-organized Juventude backline.

Team Analysis
Londrina have been in freefall. Coach Rogério Micale’s side have lost four of their last five, including defeats to Ceara (1-2), Sport Recife (1-2), and a heavy 1-4 loss to Novorizontino. Their only positive result was a 0-0 draw against Atletico Goianiense. With zero wins in the last 30 days and a 0% winrate in that stretch, their 18th-place position is no surprise. In the most recent match against Ceara, the team managed a goal but conceded twice — a pattern that has repeated throughout the season. Their 21 goals scored in 18 league games is among the lowest in the division.
Juventude arrive in strong shape under Maurício Barbieri. Four wins from seven in the last 30 days, including back-to-back wins over CRB (2-1) and Goias (1-0), place them among the division’s form teams. Their 1-0 win over Novorizontino and a disciplined 0-0 against Fortaleza (currently 6th in the top flight) shows the squad can compete across different game states. The only blemish was a 0-1 loss to Atletico Mineiro, a top-flight outfit, which is no disgrace. Safira, Raí da Silva Pessanha, Fabio Lima, and Alan Kardec have all registered goals in recent matches, spreading the scoring threat across the squad.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Juventude the favourite
- Moneyline Londrina PR 3.12 | Juventude 2.66
- Draw 2.79
- Over/Under Over 2.5 N/A | Under 2.5 N/A
- BTTS (both teams to score) Yes N/A | No N/A
Pinnacle’s line of 3.12 on Londrina and 2.66 on Juventude aligns with the bookmaker consensus placing Juventude as favorites at 38% implied probability. The draw sits at 32%, reflecting how unpredictable Londrina can be at home — they did take points off Atletico Goianiense recently. The value, to be honest, is on Juventude at 2.66 or better. Their form, squad depth, and the head-to-head result earlier this season all support backing them. Londrina at 3.12 is tempting as a home team, but their complete absence of wins in the last month makes that price misleading.
Possible Starting Lineups
Londrina PR Possible Starting Eleven
- GK: Mauricio Kozlinski
- DF: Gabriel Santos Cordeiro Lacerda, Yago Lincoln Rocha Santos, Heron, Kaue Leonardo De Souza Prado
- MF: Lucas Marques, Paulo Roberto Moccelin, Wallace Reis da Silva
- FW: William Pottker, Pablo Dyego, Gilberto
Londrina are likely to line up in their familiar 4-2-3-1. Mauricio Kozlinski starts in goal after four appearances. The back four picks itself based on appearances, with Gabriel Santos Cordeiro Lacerda and Heron providing width. Gilberto leads the attack despite zero goals in four games — his physicality gives Londrina something to play off. William Pottker, operating from a wider forward role, is the most active shooter in the squad and represents the primary goal threat.
Juventude Possible Starting Eleven
- GK: Pedro Rocha
- DF: Cristian Chagas Tarouco, Gabriel Barbosa Pinheiro, Diogo Barbosa, Aderlan
- MF: Lucas Mineiro, Raí da Silva Pessanha, Luan Martins Goncalves, Gabriel Pires
- FW: Safira, Luis Amarilla
Juventude operate in a 4-1-4-1 shape. Pedro Rocha takes the gloves after five appearances. Cristian Chagas Tarouco anchors the back line with 450 minutes played across five games and solid interception numbers. Lucas Mineiro screens in front of the defense with two yellow cards across four games — his aggression sets the tone. Safira leads the attack with one goal and 18 free kick attempts, making her the key focal point up front. Alan Kardec, despite limited minutes, has contributed a goal and an assist and could feature from the bench.

TipsGG Match Prediction
Juventude are the pick, and the numbers back it clearly. They have won 57% of their matches in the last 30 days, sit third in the Série B table, and already beat Londrina 1-0 in the reverse fixture this season. Londrina have not won a single game in their last five, scoring just twice across those matches. The Estadio do Cafe crowd will back the hosts, but home advantage has done little for Londrina this season — three wins from 18 league games tells the full story.
We predict a Juventude win to nil. Their defensive structure (51 interceptions, 1584 accurate passes in five games) is built to neutralize limited attacks, and Londrina’s output — two goals, five combined shots from their top two forwards — does not suggest a breakthrough is coming. A 1-0 or 2-0 scoreline in Juventude’s favor is the most likely outcome.
