Santos v Vasco da Gama : Serie A match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 26th Feb, 22:00 BST, Estádio Urbano Caldeira, Santos

Thursday night at the Estádio Urbano Caldeira, and it’s a Serie A clash between Santos and Vasco da Gama. Juan Pablo Vojvoda and Fernando Diniz Silva going all-out to claim victory. We've analysed both teams' last 20 Serie A matches, as well as baseline data within the competition and the betting market, to generate our percentage predictions. All the statistics, including head-to-heads, are shown below, alongside odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers.


Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think there's minimal chance that this fixture will serve up more than 3 goals at most, and the odds and statistics are in line with our predictive algorithm on this one. Santos and Vasco d Gama have rarely served up goal-fests of late, whether that be in Serie A individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, in the absence of a compelling favourite WDW or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.25.
