Juventude is going through a very complicated moment in the Brazilian Championship. The defeat to Palmeiras this weekend extended the negative streak and reinforced the warning sign in Caxias do Sul. The Jaconera team has gone five games without a win, recording the worst performance in the competition when considering the last five matches.
The team from Serra Gaúcha hasn’t won in over a month and has collected only two draws and three losses in that span. The attack produced little: just three goals scored, while the defense conceded 11 — an average of more than two goals per match. Defensive instability has become a recurring problem.
The defeat in São Paulo kept Juventude with the second-worst record as visitors in Serie A. The team has earned only five points in 13 matches away from Alfredo Jaconi, a performance that undermines their chances of recovery in the tournament. The lack of competitiveness away from home is currently one of the team’s biggest challenges in the fight against relegation.
With the latest results and the second-worst performance in the Brasileirão’s second half, Juventude sits in 19th place in the standings, five points behind Santos, the first team outside the relegation zone. The gap is still reversible, but the team needs to react urgently to avoid a return to Serie B.
