Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Sao Paulo and Santos will score at least a couple of goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Dorival Silvestre Júnior or Alexi Stival has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.33 equating to about a 79% probability.
