Sun 22nd Mar, 19:00 BST, Estádio Governador Magalhães Pin, Belo Horizonte

the Estádio Governador Magalhães Pin plays host on Sunday evening, as Adenor Leonardo Bacchi's Cruzeiro welcome Juan Pablo Vojvoda's Santos in the Serie A. All the odds are delivered directly from the UK's leading bookmakers, while predictions are algorithmically generated from stats over a 20-game period. We focus especially on Serie A match data, including head-to-head records. Click the tabs below to explore it all.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Cruzeiro and Santos will score at least a couple of goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Adenor Leonardo Bacchi or Juan Pablo Vojvoda has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.29 equating to approximately a 81% probability.
