Brazillian Serie A Tips & Predictions

Serie A stats and tips

Botafogo v Remo - Both Teams To Score - yes

Botafogo fans have become used to drama at each end when their team plays in Serie A, with both teams having scored at least one goal in all of their last 8 games. Remo on Saturday night should be another ding-dong battle.

Palmeiras v Santos - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

J. Vojvoda won't be looking forward to the prospect of playing Palmeiras in Serie A on Saturday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have led at HT and gone on to win at final whistle in more games than any other side in the Serie A this season - 9 times in total. That record suggests it may be a tough night for Santos, and that backing Palmeiras in the halftime fulltime market would be a strong bet at odds of 2.25.

Athletico PR v Gremio - Half Time / Full Time - away+away

Athletico PR will be looking to avoid adding to the 5 matches they have already been behind in at both halftime and fulltime this season when they face Gremio on Sunday. O. Hellmann's side already top the rest of Serie A in that area, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss L. Ribeiro de Castro will be licking his lips, however.

Cruzeiro v A Mineiro - Both Teams To Score - no

If the form book is to be believed, we can predict at least one defence to keep a clean sheet at Estádio Governador Magalhães Pin on Sunday, as J. Sampaoli Moya and A. Bacchi's sides clash. Atlético Mineiro have had the highest number of matches where one team or more has not found the net (i.e. BTTS no) in Serie A so far this season - 9 out of 13 played. Both bosses will just be praying it isn't their side that flounders in front of goal.

Flamengo v Vasco d Gama - Double Chance - home win or draw

Vasco da Gama have consistently struggled against Flamengo in the Serie A in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 12 occasions since 2018, and Flamengo have remained unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Jornalista Mário Filho could be a really difficult one for F. Diniz Silva & co.

Sao Paulo v Bahia - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - over

Every one of Bahia's last 7 Serie A matches has had two or more goals, suggesting that we could be in for a treat as they face Sao Paulo on Sunday night.

Chapecoense v Bragantino - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw

Arena Condá is the venue as Chapecoense and Bragantino meet on Sunday night, in what could prove to be a real crowd-pleaser. G. Dal Pozzo's side have the highest number of score draws of any side in the competition - 4 in 12 games. An extension of that record is available at 4.33.

Internacional v Fluminense - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Internacional and Fluminense have laboured through a number of low-scoring matches in recent years. With each of their last 6 Serie A meetings seeing under 2.5 goals, the strikers picked by A. da Silva Braga and L. Zubeldía may be in for a long day night.

Mirassol v Corinthians - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Corinthians have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 11 of their side's matches in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will R. Silva Guanaes and his Mirassol team be able to inject goals into this fixture on Monday? Or will it be same old same old?

A Mineiro v Botafogo - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you fancy a thriller on Sunday night, then the clash between Botafogo and Atlético Mineiro could be one to watch. Davide Ancelotti's team lead Serie A in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 11 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from J. Sampaoli Moya's men could keep the score down.

Remo v Palmeiras - Half Time / Full Time - away+away

A. Ferreira won't be looking forward to facing Palmeiras in Serie A on Sunday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have led at halftime and gone on to claim victory at fulltime more frequently than any other side in the Serie A this term - 9 times in total. That record suggests it could well be a demoralising night for Remo, and that backing Palmeiras in the halftime fulltime market would be a great shout at odds of 2.60.

Corinthians v Sao Paulo - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Corinthians have had too many chances to test that theory this season. 11 of their side's games in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will H. Crespo and his Sao Paulo team be capable of adding some goalmouth action into this match on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

Mirassol v Chapecoense - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw

plays host as Chapecoense and Mirassol clash on Sunday night, in what might just be a proper ding-dong battle. G. Dal Pozzo's side have the most BTTS + draws of any club in the league - 4 in 12 games. An extension of that record is available at 4.75.

Santos v Bragantino - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like backing goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming match between Santos and Bragantino might well be the one for you. J. Vojvoda's side have lost 5 games this season in which both teams have found the net. That's the highest number in Serie A.

Vasco d Gama v Athletico PR - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at Estádio Club de Regatas Vasco da may be fully expecting plenty goalmouth action on Monday, and they're right to, if Vasco da Gama's recent record is to be continued. There have been a goal in both nets in 11 of their 13 Serie A fixtures this season, the largest number in the competition.
