Brazillian Serie A Tips & Predictions

Serie A stats and tips

Bahia v Santos - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like tipping goals and choosing a winner, 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 clubs have scored. That's a record in Serie A.

Botafogo v Internacional - Both Teams To Score - yes

Botafogo supporters have become used to action at each end when their team plays in Serie A, with both sides having scored at least one goal in all of their last 7 matches. Internacional on Saturday night may well be another thriller.

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 meeting 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 followers have been spoilt with entertainment at each end when their side plays in Serie A, with both teams having scored in each of their last 9 outings. Corinthians on Sunday night should be another ding-dong battle.

Gremio v Cortiba - Double Chance - away win or draw

What a dreadful succession of results for Gremio and their faithful followers, with their last Serie A success now coming 5 matches ago. Boss L. Ribeiro de Castro needs to find a remedy, and sooner rather than later. Will Coritiba at Arena do Grêmio on Sunday come too soon, or be a turning point?

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

Athletico PR will be looking to avoid adding to the 5 times they have already been losing at both the break and the final whistle this season when they take on Vitória on Sunday. O. Hellmann's side already lead 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 going up against Palmeiras in Serie A on Sunday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have been ahead at HT and gone on to win at FT more often than any other side in the Serie A this term - 8 times in total. That record suggests it could well be a tough night for Bragantino, and that backing Palmeiras in the HT FT market would be a smart move 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 goalkeeper 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 most games 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 praying it isn't their them that fails to register.

Fluminense v Chapecoense - Double Chance - home win or draw

Supporting your team home and away can be a pretty dispiriting experience at times, and Chapecoense’s long-suffering follows know that feeling especially well right now. Their side, led by G. Dal Pozzo, has now failed to win any of their last 10 Serie A matches, and the clouds hardly look like parting against Fluminense at Estadio Jornalista Mário Filho on Monday morning. Backing opposition gaffer L. Zubeldía to add another to that list by guiding his side to a positive result can be backed at top odds of 1.06.

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 the one for you. Davide Ancelotti's team lead Serie A in most matches with over 2.5 goals so far this season. 10 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only a defensive masterclass from A. Ferreira's men could ruin the spectacle.

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

J. Vojvoda won't be relishing going up against Palmeiras in Serie A on Saturday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have been ahead at the break and gone on to claim victory at final whistle in more games than any other club in the Serie A this term - 8 times in total. That stat suggests it may be a long 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 looking to avoid adding to the 5 games they have already been behind in at both halftime and fulltime this campaign when they play Gremio on Sunday. O. Hellmann's side already top the rest of Serie A in that category, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss L. Ribeiro de Castro will be licking his lips, however.

Cruzeiro v A Mineiro - Both Teams To Score - no

If we trust the form book, we can back at least one set of players to earn 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 most 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 managers will just be hoping it isn't their team that fails to register.

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 clubs have played on 12 occasions since 2018, and Flamengo have been 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 backdrop as Chapecoense and Bragantino go head-to-head 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 team in the league - 4 in 11 matches. An extension of that record has best odds of 4.33.

Internacional v Fluminense - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Internacional and Fluminense have played out a number of low-scoring matches in recent years. With each of their last 6 Serie A clashes having 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 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?
