Cuiaba have a stronger league position and better recent form, and their defensive record away (5 clean sheets) reduces the risk of a loss. Londrina’s home scoring is modest and they have failed to score in six recent games, limiting their offensive threat. The head‑to‑head shows Londrina’s advantage but the most recent 2‑2 draw indicates both sides can share points. Together with low goal averages, the probability of Cuiaba avoiding defeat is higher than a straight win, supporting an away‑or‑draw double chance.

Our verdict
BetGenius backs Cuiaba or Draw (Double Chance) at 68% confidence — a solid call. Total goals: Under 2.5 Goals.
Match preview
Londrina host Cuiaba in a Serie B clash with both clubs fighting to avoid the relegation zone. Londrina sit 18th with 29 points, having struggled to score at home (1.4 goals per game) and registering six matches without finding the net. Cuiaba are 11th with 47 points, but their away record shows limited firepower, averaging just 0.8 goals per game and failing to score in nine away fixtures.
Cuiaba arrive in better recent form, recording two wins, a draw and two losses in their last five, while Londrina have managed only one draw and four defeats. The head‑to‑head record favours Londrina, who have won two of the three previous meetings, the most recent ending in a 2‑2 draw. Both sides have solid defensive records at home for Londrina (seven clean sheets) and away for Cuiaba (five clean sheets), suggesting a tight encounter.
Given the low scoring averages and the defensive resilience on display, the match is likely to produce few goals, with the under‑2.5 market appearing attractive. Cuiaba, despite the travel, are expected to at least hold Londrina, making an away‑or‑draw double chance a prudent selection.
