Brazillian Serie A Tips & Predictions

Serie A stats and tips

A Mineiro v Mirassol - Both Teams To Score - no

If we trust the form book, we can back at least one side to keep a clean sheet at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio on Saturday, as J. Sampaoli Moya and R. Silva Guanaes's teams meet. Atlético Mineiro have had the highest number of games where one team or more has not found the net (i.e. BTTS no) in Serie A so far this campaign - 9 out of 15 played. Both bosses will just be hoping it isn't their them that flounders in front of goal.

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

Supporters at Estádio José Pinheiro Borda may be fully expecting action at both ends on Saturday, and rightly so if Vasco da Gama's recent record is to be continued. Both teams have found the net in 12 of their 15 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 looking forward to facing Palmeiras in Serie A on Sunday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have been winning at halftime and gone on to claim victory at final whistle more often than any other team in the Serie A this term - 9 times in total. That record suggests it may be a long morning for Cruzeiro, and that backing Palmeiras in the HT FT market could be a great shout at odds of 2.63.

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 met 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 boring, but fans of Corinthians have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 11 of their side's matches in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Davide Ancelotti and his Botafogo team be able to inject goalmouth action into this encounter on Sunday? Or will it be more of the same?

Bragantino v Vitoria - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - over

Nil-nils have been a highly uncommon occurrence in Bragantino's Serie A outings recently. Their last 58 have had over 0.5 goals, and Sunday night's match with J. Ribeiro Ventura's Vitória really should be a similar story.

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

It may not be a record they're all that proud of, but Chapecoense currently lead all opponents in Serie A when it comes to fixtures drawn at both halftime and fulltime this season, with their tally now at 5 in 14 outings. They will put that unwanted consistency on the line versus Remo at Arena Condá on Sunday, in a match that could see yet another tie.

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

Athletico PR will be looking to avoid adding to the 5 times they have already been behind in at both HT and FT this term when they take on Flamengo on Sunday. O. Hellmann's players already top the rest of Serie A in that department, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss F. Kasmirski , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.

Sao Paulo v Botafogo - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Saturday night, then the clash between Botafogo and Sao Paulo could be the one for you. Davide Ancelotti's team lead Serie A in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 12 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from H. Crespo's men could keep the score down.

Gremio v Santos - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like backing goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming match between Santos and Gremio might well be worth a look. J. Vojvoda's side have lost 5 games this season in which both sides have scored. That's a record in Serie A.

Flamengo v Palmeiras - Double Chance - home win or draw

Palmeiras simply have not been able to find a way past Flamengo in the Serie A in recent years. The two sides have played on 16 occasions since 2018, and Flamengo have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Jornalista Mário Filho could be another hard one for A. Moreira Ferreira & co.

Cruzeiro v Chapecoense - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Cruzeiro and Chapecoense have played out a number of cagey affairs in recent years. With each of their last 5 league meetings ending with under 2.5 goals, the attackers picked by A. Bacchi and G. Dal Pozzo may be in for a long day night.

Remo v Athletico PR - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

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 season when they face Remo on Sunday. O. Hellmann's team already lead the rest of Serie A in that area, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss A. Ferreira will be licking his lips, however.

Corinthians v A Mineiro - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring matches aren't always boring, but fans of Corinthians have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this season. 11 of their side's encounters in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will J. Sampaoli Moya and his Atlético Mineiro team be able to inject goalmouth action into this clash on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

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

Supporters at Estádio Club de Regatas Vasco da will be banking on plenty goalmouth action on Monday, and they're right to, if Vasco da Gama's recent record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 12 of their 15 Serie A fixtures this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
