Novorizontino host Cuiaba on Saturday, Sep 12 at 5:00 PM in a top-four clash that could have significant title implications. Both sides are separated by just 1 point in the Serie B, making this one of the more consequential fixtures of the season.

Novorizontino come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Cuiaba, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 1D 1L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

In 3 previous meetings, Novorizontino lead 2–0 with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 0–0 draw.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Novorizontino a slight edge, but Cuiaba are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
