Anapolis FC welcome Maringa FC on Sunday, Jul 12 at 9:00 PM in a Serie C – 1st Stage fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Anapolis FC come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Maringa FC, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Anapolis FC head into this on the back of a defeat, while Maringa FC arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Anapolis FC and Maringa FC have split their 3 meetings almost evenly (0W–3D–0W). Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Anapolis FC win or a draw looks most likely.
