Group leadership is on the line, and the return fixture shifts to a venue where Caxias have been formidable. Despite a recent wobble, the hosts boast one of the division’s strongest home profiles, while Londrina have become increasingly pragmatic away from home.</p> <h3>What the Numbers Say</h3> <p>Caxias at home are exceptional: 2.67 points per game, 89% wins, conceding just 0.67 per match. Their game flow is distinctive—low-risk first halves, then a powerful late push. They’ve scored 10 second-half home goals and conceded none after the break, including an eye-popping 8 in the 76–90 minute window. Londrina’s away pattern also tilts late: 58% of their away goals come after halftime, with five in the final quarter-hour. Expect the match to open up as legs tire and substitutions bite.</p> <h3>Tactical Picture</h3> <p>Londrina typically deploy a 4-2-3-1, looking for wide combinations and late penalty-area arrivals. Caxias tend to be more conservative with a 5-4-1, lean on a tight block, and strike when the game stretches. Those blueprints produced the 1-1 in the first leg—Londrina’s front line sparked by Diego Quirino and Iago Teles, while Caxias found their equalizer through Jhonatan Ribeiro.</p> <h3>Key Matchups and Players to Watch</h3> <ul> <li>Welder (Caxias): 3 goals in just 141 league minutes; a high-impact option to change tempo after halftime.</li> <li>Iago (Caxias): 3 in 7 earlier this phase; can threaten between lines if Caxias push wingbacks late.</li> <li>Diego Quirino (Londrina): Scored in the recent head-to-head; physical presence that pins center-backs.</li> <li>Iago Teles and Eliel (Londrina): Provide vertical running and late-box threats, especially in transitions.</li> </ul> <h3>Situational Edges</h3> <p>Game state matters. If Caxias score first, their home lead-defending rate (89%) and overall composure tilt the contest. If Londrina score first, note their away lead-defending has been perfect in the sample—100%—but they’ve only scored first away 33% of the time and struggle to claw back when conceding first (0.60 PPG).</p> <h3>Markets to Target</h3> <p>Two angles pop. First, protection on the home side: Caxias +0 (Draw No Bet) at 1.58 fairly prices their home dominance and superior last-8 point haul (13 vs Londrina’s 10). Second, the late scoring profile: Highest Scoring Half – 2nd Half (2.15) and Caxias to score in the 2nd half (1.85) align with both sides’ timing trends.</p> <h3>Totals and BTTS View</h3> <p>While both clubs are above league averages for total goals across the full season, the venue-specific data leans under and against BTTS. Caxias’ home BTTS is 44% and Londrina’s away BTTS is just 22%, producing a strong composite case for BTTS No. If you’re braver, “Londrina No Goal” at 2.38 is live, backed by Caxias’ second-half clean sheet run at home and Londrina’s 44% away failed-to-score rate.</p> <h3>Scoreline Lens</h3> <p>Caxias’ common home wins are 1-0 and 2-1. Given the BTTS suppression away from Londrina, 1-0 at 5.15 is a fair small-stake play that dovetails with the main angles.</p> <h3>Final Word</h3> <p>Both teams are strong and well-coached, and recent form is tight. But the venue tilt, game-state metrics, and extreme late-phase patterns support a home-lean with conservative cover and second-half markets. If Londrina nick the opener, consider a live hedge—otherwise the statistical spine points to Caxias asserting themselves late.</p> </body> </html>
