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 matches where one team or more has failed to score (i.e. BTTS no) in Serie A so far this campaign - 9 out of 15 played. Both gaffers will just be praying it isn't their them that fails to register.

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

Supporters at Estádio José Pinheiro Borda will be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Saturday, and rightly so if Vasco da Gama's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have scored in 12 of their 15 Serie A matches this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.

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

A. Bacchi won't be relishing going up against Palmeiras in Serie A on Sunday. A. Moreira Ferreira's side have been winning at halftime and gone on to secure the win at final whistle in more games than any other club in the Serie A this season - 9 times in total. That record suggests it may be a difficult morning for Cruzeiro, and that backing Palmeiras in the HT FT market could be a smart move at odds of 2.63.

Santos v Cortiba - Double Chance - home win or draw

Coritiba have consistently struggled against Santos in the league in recent years. The two clubs have played on 8 occasions since 2020, and Santos have remained unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estádio Urbano Caldeira could be a really difficult one for M. Batista Junior & co.

Bahia v Gremio - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - over

Each of Bahia's last 9 Serie A matches has had two or more goals, suggesting that entertainment could be on its way as they face Gremio on Sunday night.

Botafogo v Corinthians - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring games aren't always boring, but fans of Corinthians have had plenty of opportunity 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 Davide Ancelotti and his Botafogo team be capable of adding some goalmouth action into this match on Sunday? Or will it be same old same old?

Bragantino v Vitoria - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - over

Nil-nils have been an almost unheard of 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 deliver more of the same.

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

Arena Condá plays host as Chapecoense and Remo go head-to-head on Sunday night, in what could prove to be a tight affair. G. Dal Pozzo's side have the most score draws of any team in the division - 5 in 14 matches. An extension of that record is available at 4.33.

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

Athletico PR will be looking to avoid adding to the 6 times they have already lost at both halftime and fulltime this season when they square off against Flamengo on Sunday. O. Hellmann's side already top the rest of Serie A in that department, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss F. Kasmirski may not feel the same way, however.

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 over 2.5 goals so far this season. 12 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only a parking of the bus from H. Crespo's men could ruin the spectacle.

Gremio 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 Gremio could be worth a look. J. Vojvoda's side have lost 5 games this campaign 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 clubs have clashed on 16 occasions since 2018, and Flamengo have gone unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Jornalista Mário Filho could be a tricky one for A. Moreira Ferreira & co.

Cruzeiro v Chapecoense - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Cruzeiro and Chapecoense have been involved in a number of cagey affairs in recent years. With each of their last 5 league clashes ending with under 2.5 goals, the forwards picked by A. Bacchi and G. Dal Pozzo may be in for a tough night.

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

Athletico PR will be hoping not to add to the 6 games they have already been losing at both halftime and fulltime this term when they face Remo on Sunday. O. Hellmann's team already lead the rest of Serie A in that department, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss A. Ferreira , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.

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

Low scoring encounters aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Corinthians have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 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 side be able to inject goals into this match on Sunday? Or will it be same old same old?

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

Fans at Estádio Club de Regatas Vasco da may be banking on action at both ends on Monday, and rightly so if Vasco da Gama's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have found the net in 12 of their 15 Serie A fixtures this season, more than any side in the competition.
