Game Prediction
In the Round of 16 of the Brazilian Cup, the second leg between Atlético Paranaense and Brusque will take place on May 21, 2025. The current visitors managed to hold a goalless draw at home, but now it will be much tougher for them to get the desired result.
Our Prediction for Atlético Paranaense vs Brusque
The club from Curitiba had a disappointing last season. They collected only 42 points and were relegated from 17th place to the second division. Their opponent finished second to last, but in Série B. As a result, the teams did not meet until now.
Maurício Barbieri’s squad mostly disappoints. In the state championship, they were eliminated in the semifinals by modest Maringá. In Série B, after a decent start with three wins in four matches, they could only manage draws at best. They also lost 1-2 to Vila Nova. The current visitors, after dropping out in the Catarinense quarterfinals, started their campaign in the third division optimistically, but then stopped scoring. They broke their dry run against Ponte Preta, whom they thrashed 4-1.
In the cup, Sapelli and company achieved confident victories: 2-0 over Poçu-Alegre and 3-1 over Guarani de Bagé. But in Santa Catarina, there was only a goalless draw. Before that, the club eliminated Trem away (2-0) and Olaria (2-1).
