Both Guarani and Novorizontino will be looking to make it back-to-back victories in Brasileiro Serie B when they face off at the Estadio Brinco de Ouro on Wednesday.
Both sides have been struggling in Brasileiro Serie B with Guarani managing to claiming just 32 points from 30 matches and they currently sit 16th, jointly on points with 17th-placed CSA who are in the relegation zone.
Meanwhile Novorizontino have managed to collect 36 points from 30 games and currently they sit 13th in the league standing, four points above their Wednesday hosts and four outside the top half of the table.
They have both been struggling for form lately with Guarani recording an inconsistent run over the last six games as they have been alternating defeats and victories in the run, while Novorizontino have only won one of their last six league matches.
Both however are off the back of confidence-boosting wins with the hosts beating Operario Ferraviario a narrow 1-0 at away, while Novorizontino claimed a 2-0 win over Gremio at home. Both sides will be keen to build on the victory with Guarani seeking to climb away from the relegation zone, while Novorizontino will want to climb closer to the top half.
