Brazillian Serie A Tips & Predictions

Serie A stats and tips

Bahia v Santos - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming fixture between Santos and Bahia could warrant a closer look. J. Vojvoda's side have lost 5 games this campaign in which both teams have scored. That's a record in Serie A.

Botafogo v Internacional - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you fancy a thriller on Saturday night, then the clash between Botafogo and Internacional could be one to watch. Davide Ancelotti's team lead Serie A in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 10 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from A. da Silva Braga's men could keep the score down.

Sao Paulo v Mirassol - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - over

Nil-nils have been a highly uncommon occurrence in Sao Paulo's Serie A outings recently. Their last 43 have had over 0.5 goals, and Sunday morning's match with R. Silva Guanaes's Mirassol really should be a similar story.

Corinthians v Vasco d Gama - Both Teams To Score - yes

Vasco da Gama supporters have come to expect drama at each end when their team plays in Serie A, with both sides having scored at least one goal in every one of their last 9 games. Corinthians on Sunday night should be another ding-dong battle.

Gremio v Cortiba - Double Chance - away win or draw

It has been a miserable succession of results for Gremio and their faithful followers, with their last Serie A win now coming 5 games ago. Boss L. Ribeiro de Castro needs to find a solution, and preferably right away. Will Coritiba at Arena do Grêmio on Sunday provide some relief?

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

Athletico PR will be hoping not to add to the 5 games they have already lost at both the break and the final whistle this season when they face Vitória on Sunday. O. Hellmann's team already top the rest of Serie A in that category, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss J. Ribeiro Ventura , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.

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

V. Carmo Mancini won't be relishing facing Palmeiras in Serie A on Sunday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have led at HT and gone on to win at FT in more games than any other club in the Serie A this term - 8 times in total. That stat suggests it could well be a demoralising night for Bragantino, and that backing Palmeiras in the HT FT market would be a great shout at odds of 3.75.

A Mineiro v Flamengo - Both Teams To Score - no

If we trust the form book, we can expect at least one set of players to earn a clean sheet at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio on Monday, as J. Sampaoli Moya and F. Kasmirski's sides clash. Atlético Mineiro have had the highest number of fixtures where one team or more has failed to find the back of the net (i.e. BTTS no) in Serie A so far this term - 8 out of 12 played. Both gaffers will just be hoping it isn't their team that fails to register.

Fluminense v Chapecoense - Double Chance - home win or draw

It has been a dreadful succession of results for Chapecoense and their fans, with their last Serie A victory now coming 10 games ago. Boss G. Dal Pozzo simply must find a remedy, and quickly. Will Fluminense at Estadio Jornalista Mário Filho on Monday provide some relief?

Botafogo v Remo - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you fancy a thriller on Saturday night, then the clash between Botafogo and Remo could be one to watch. Davide Ancelotti's team lead Serie A in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 10 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from A. Ferreira's men could prevent more of the same.

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

J. Vojvoda won't be relishing the prospect of playing Palmeiras in Serie A on Saturday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have led at halftime and gone on to secure the win at fulltime more frequently than any other side in the Serie A this season - 8 times in total. That stat suggests it could well be a demoralising night for Santos, and that backing Palmeiras in the HT FT market would be a strong bet at odds of 2.30.

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

Athletico PR will be hoping not to add to the 5 games they have already been losing at both the break and the final whistle 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 may not feel the same way, however.

Cruzeiro v A Mineiro - Both Teams To Score - no

If the form book is to be believed, we can back at least one goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet at Estádio Governador Magalhães Pin on Sunday, as J. Sampaoli Moya and A. Bacchi's teams meet. 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 campaign - 8 out of 12 played. Both gaffers will just be praying it isn't their team that draws a blank.

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

Vasco da Gama have found something of a bogey team in 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 tricky one for F. Diniz Silva & co.

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

Arena Condá is the venue as Chapecoense and Bragantino clash on Sunday night, in what might just be a proper ding-dong battle. G. Dal Pozzo's side have the highest number of score draws of any team in the division - 4 in 11 outings. An extension of that record has best odds of 4.33.

Internacional v Fluminense - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Internacional and Fluminense have been involved in a number of tight clashes in recent years. With each of their last 6 Serie A matches having under 2.5 goals, the strikers picked by A. da Silva Braga and L. Zubeldía may be going home disappointed on night.

Mirassol v Corinthians - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring matches aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Corinthians have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 10 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 capable of adding some spice into this fixture on Monday? Or will it be same old same old?
