Cuiaba — Clube Regatas Brasil : Match Preview and Prediction for September 09,2025

Cuiaba’s Recent Form: A Goal-Filled Trend

Cuiaba has recently found its rhythm, not in outright victories, but in high-scoring draws. Their last three matches ended with both teams finding the net: a 1-1 draw against Atletico Paranaense, a 2-2 draw with Atletico-GO, and, most notably, a thrilling 2-2 away draw against Ferroviaria. In that previous game, Cuiaba was down 0-2 but displayed impressive character and attacking potential to fight back, showing their resilience.

Attacking Prowess Confirmed by Stats

The statistics from the Ferroviaria match clearly underscore Cuiaba’s attacking intent. They unleashed 16 shots on the opponent’s goal, with 5 on target. Their Expected Goals (xG) stood at a remarkable 2.02, which is excellent for an away team. They are consistently creating chances, and more importantly, converting them.

Defensive Vulnerabilities and Key Absences

However, Cuiaba’s defense doesn’t currently appear to be a solid unit. Key goalkeeper Matheus Pazinato is injured and will be out for the rest of the season. Additionally, starting defender Sander is also sidelined. These significant losses weaken the defensive line, making conceding a goal a very probable outcome. The trend supports this: both teams have scored in 6 of Cuiaba’s last 9 matches.

Home Advantage and Offensive Threat

At their home ground, Arena Pantanal, Cuiaba is particularly dangerous in attack. The team has scored 19 goals in 11 home games, which is one of the best records in the league. Players like Allyson Safira and Carlos Alberto know how to exert pressure on the opposition’s defense, especially with the fervent support of their home crowd.

Clube Regatas Brasil’s Open Play Style on the Road

Clube Regatas Brasil (CRB) is a team that embraces an open style of football when playing away from home. The hard facts speak volumes: in 12 of their last 19 away matches, both teams scored. This is no mere coincidence; it’s a clear pattern that has persisted throughout the season.

Strengthened Attack and Offensive Outlook

The team approaches this match without any personnel losses in their attacking line-up. Furthermore, the return of striker Mikael to the starting eleven is anticipated, which will only boost their offensive potential. Alongside talents like Douglas Baggio and Tiaguinho, CRB’s attack is capable of causing problems for any defense, especially one weakened by injuries, as Cuiaba’s is.

Recent Performance and Defensive Leaks

CRB won their last game against Paysandu with a 2-0 scoreline, confirming their strong attacking form. They travel to Cuiaba with confidence in their abilities. Their away statistics in the league table also highlight their defensive vulnerability, having conceded 17 goals in 12 away games. On average, they concede more than a goal per game on the road.
