Brazilian lower‑division clubs gear up for decisive Série C and D fixtures

Paysandu will host Guarani on Sunday in the Curuzu stadium for the 14th round of Série C. The match, described by goalkeeper Gabriel Mesquita as a "decision", could change the top of the table, with Paysandu sitting fifth on 20 points and Guarani second with 23. A victory would help Paysandu break its recent losing streak and stay within the competition's G‑8.

At the same time, Manauara Esporte Clube prepares for the second leg of its Série D third‑phase tie against Goiatuba‑GO on Sunday at the Ismael Benigno stadium. After a 1‑0 away win, Manauara leads the aggregate and aims to secure a place in the round of 16. Tickets range from R$ 10 to R$ 20, with free entry for fans wearing the club's official shirt.

Both clubs have highlighted the importance of home support, with special media coverage planned for the PaysanduGuarani clash and promotional offers to boost attendance for the Manauara‑Goiatuba match.
