Team Previews, Form and Standout Players

Juventude have struggled all season as they find themselves in the relegation zone due to their goal difference. Four teams share the same number of points so a win would be massively ideal for them. Grêmio sit comfortably in a mid table position but they climb some more places and confirm their spot in the Copa Sudamericana as they currently occupy the last available spot.

Grêmio Preview

Predicted Line-Up: Agustín Marchesín; Reinaldo, Jemerson, Rodrigo Ely, João Pedro; Dodi, Mathías Villasanti; Alexander Aravena, Edenilson, Yeferson Soteldo; Martin Braithwaite

Grêmio have had a very average season, residing in the mid table places. After 33 games they sit in 12th place, the last place to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana. 11 wins, 16 losses and 6 draws has left them with 39 points, three points away from 10th place. A win would help them stay in a good position to make the Copa Sudamericana so they will be desperate for all three points this Wednesday. Former Barcelona striker Martin Braithwaite could help with that as he has amassed six goals in the 13 matches he has played since joining as a free transfer.

Juventude Preview

Predicted Line-Up: Gabriel; Lucas Freitas, Danilo Boza, Rodrigo Sam, João Lucas; Ronaldo, Jádson; Edson Carioca, Mandaca, Lucas Barbosa; Gilberto

Juventude have had a disappointing season this campaign. Playing 33 games and they sit in 17th place with nine wins, 14 losses and 10 draws. Those results have left them with 37 points but from 14th to 17th place share the same number of points, goal difference the only difference. Juventude come into this game with a win in their last so that could help them with their confidence in an attempt to escape the relegation zone on Wednesday. Someone that could help them do that could be winger Lucas Barbosa as he has found the back of the net five times this season, Juventude’s top scorer this season.
