Juventude is experiencing a very complicated moment in the Brazilian Championship. The defeat to Palmeiras this weekend extended their negative streak and raised the alarm in Caxias do Sul. The team from Jaconi has gone five games without a win, recording the worst performance in the competition considering the last five matches.
The team from Serra Gaúcha hasn't won for over a month and has only managed two draws and three losses in this period. The attack produced little: only three goals scored, while the defense conceded 11 — an average of more than two goals per game. Defensive instability has become a recurring problem.
The defeat in São Paulo kept Juventude with the second worst away campaign in Serie A. The team has only earned five points in 13 matches away from Alfredo Jaconi, a performance that jeopardizes 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 second half of the Brasileirão, Juventude occupies the 19th place in the standings, with five points less than 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.
