Gremio v Sao Paulo : Serie A match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 16th Oct, 23:00 BST, Arena do Grêmio, Rio

Gremio and Sao Paulo go head to head at the Arena do Grêmio on Thursday night, with both Luiz Antônio Venker de Menezes and Hernán Jorge Crespo aiming for victory in the Serie A. All stats, including an in-depth look at the form of both sides and head to head (H2H) history, will update as you click through each of the 17 major markets via the tabs below. Odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers and, of course, KickOff's predictions will too.


Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

We're tipping a game with little to choose between the sides here and, as such, are predicting under 2.5 goals. For those unfamiliar with that term, this simply means that 2 goals or fewer will be scored in total as Gremio and Sao Paulo go head-to-head. Tight defences and clear heads will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have reason to trust both sides to deliver precisely that. The statistics and the odds below point in this direction too.
