Brazillian Serie A Tips & Predictions

Serie A stats and tips

A Mineiro v Botafogo - Both Teams To Score - yes

Botafogo fans have come to expect entertainment at each end when their team plays in Serie A, with both teams having scored in every one of their last 9 matches. Atlético Mineiro on Sunday night could be another thriller.

Remo v Palmeiras - Double Chance - away win or draw

A. Moreira Ferreira and his Palmeiras troops have developed a convenient habit of taking something from pretty much every Serie A fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 9 in Serie A now, so A. Ferreira and his Remo charges will have to be at their best if they're to stand any chance at Estádio Estadual Jornalista Edgar Augusto Proença on Sunday.

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

Low scoring matches aren't always boring, but fans of Corinthians have had too many chances to test that theory this term. 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 able to inject goalmouth action into this clash on Sunday? Or will it be same old same old?

Mirassol v Chapecoense - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw

It may not be an honour they're especially enamoured with, but Chapecoense currently lead all opposition in Serie A when it comes to fixtures in which they have been level at both the break and the final whistle this term, with their tally now at 5 in 13 matches. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Mirassol at on Sunday, in a match that could see yet another tie.

Santos v Bragantino - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like tipping goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming game between Santos and Bragantino could be the one for you. J. Vojvoda's side have lost 5 games this term in which both clubs have scored. That's a record in Serie A.

Gremio v Flamengo - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Gremio have played out some low-scoring outings in Serie A recently. There have been under 2.5 goals in all of L. Ribeiro de Castro's side's last 5 outings and, with F. Kasmirski and his Flamengo ahead on Sunday night, their attackers really should be putting in some extra practice in training this week.

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 with good reason if Vasco da Gama's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have found the net in 12 of their 14 Serie A matches this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.

A Mineiro v Mirassol - Both Teams To Score - no

If the form book is to be believed, we can predict at least one defence to earn a clean sheet at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio on Saturday, as J. Sampaoli Moya and R. Silva Guanaes's sides clash. Atlético Mineiro have had the highest number of games where one team or more has failed to score (i.e. BTTS no) in Serie A so far this campaign - 9 out of 14 played. Both bosses will just be desperate that it isn't their side that flounders in front of goal.

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

Fans at Estádio José Pinheiro Borda will be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Saturday, and with good reason if Vasco da Gama's past record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 12 of their 14 Serie A matches this season, the largest number in the competition.

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

A. Bacchi won't be too excited about facing Palmeiras in Serie A on Sunday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have been winning at halftime and gone on to secure the win at FT in more games than any other side in the Serie A this term - 9 times in total. That stat suggests it could well be a demoralising morning for Cruzeiro, and that backing Palmeiras in the halftime fulltime market would be a strong bet at odds of 2.60.

Santos v Cortiba - Double Chance - home win or draw

Coritiba simply have not been able to find a way past Santos in the league in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 8 occasions since 2020, and Santos have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estádio Urbano Caldeira could be a tricky one for M. Batista Junior & co.

Botafogo v Corinthians - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Corinthians have had too many chances to test that theory this term. 11 of their side's fixtures in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Davide Ancelotti and his Botafogo side be capable of adding some spice into this fixture on Sunday? Or will it be more of the same?

Chapecoense v Remo - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw

It might not be a record they're all that enamoured with, but Chapecoense currently lead all other teams in Serie A when it comes to games where they've been drawing at both HT and FT this term, with their tally now at 5 in 13 matches. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Remo at Arena Condá on Sunday, in a fixture that could see yet another stalemate.

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

Athletico PR will be looking to avoid adding to the 5 matches they have already been losing at both the break and the final whistle this campaign when they square off against Flamengo on Sunday. O. Hellmann's team already top the rest of Serie A in that area, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss F. Kasmirski , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.
