Starting with the hosts, while Nautico might have only made their Serie B return this season, it is no secret that Guilherme dos Anjos’ camp are almost universally regarded as a standout relegation candidate this time around. Despite signing off May in the midst of a real flurry, the Pernambuco-based outfit have come crashing back down to earth in a worrying fashion. Opening the midweek fixtures holding just a two-point buffer over the drop zone, the Timbu have the feel of a squad seeking an essential boost. Including a routine 2-0 loss at the hands of Avai earlier in the month, Nautico have now registered just a sole point from any of their last five straight Serie B showdowns. In fact, Thursday’s hosts have failed to win any of their previous eight straight outings (six defeats, two draws). It should also be highlighted, dos Anjos’ camp have notched just a single strike in their last four Seire B appearances.
As for the visitors, also making their Serie B return this season, Londrina find themselves in an almost identical position to Thursday’s opponents. Travelling to Pernambuco in midweek holding just a one-point buffer over the drop zone, Allan Aai’s side are desperate to widen their buffer over the chasing pack. Despite their nightmare start to the 2026 campaign, the Sharks have shown some real signs of resolve over the past month. While Londrina might have been last seen settling for an uneventful 0-0 stalemate at home against Botafogo SP, Aai’s men are unbeaten in their previous six straight outings (three wins, three draws). Getting July underway with a sensational display as they cruised their way to a 5-0 romp against CRB, they have also shown some major defensive grit. In fact, Londrina have shipped just a sole strike in almost 300 minutes of action.
Bet: Both teams *not* to score at Nautico vs Londrina 19/20 for Thursday’s Brazil Serie B battle @ 1xBet
