Serie A stats and tips

Botafogo v Atletico Go - Double Chance - away win or draw

Following your favourite footy team year after year can be a tough old business, and Botafogo’s dogged old follows know that better than most right now. Their club, led by Artur Jorge, is now winless in their previous 12 Serie A matches, and few will be expecting them to end that run against Atlético Go at Estádio Nilton Santos on Friday morning. Backing opposition boss J. Ribeiro Ventura to add another to that list by inspiring his side to either a win or draw can be backed at top odds of 2.15.

Bragantino v Corinthians - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

We all love a game in which more than 4 goals fly in, but Bragantino's loyal fans have now had to wait 36 matches to see their team take part in one. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book. Could the streak come to an end on Saturday night, as they face A. Cardoso de Oliveira's Corinthians at Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid? With odds of 1.06 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookies certainly don’t think so.

Gremio v Cuiaba - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Cuiabá's recent matches in Serie A have delivered goals and thrills along the way, but it has been some time since L. Iubel's players provided their supporters with a ding-dong battle with goals galore. There have been under 4.5 goals in every one of their last 72 outings.

Athletico PR v Internacional - Win / Draw / Win - away win

There's some serious momentum building behind Internacional at the moment. They've claimed victory in 6 consecutive Serie A matches, and Eduardo Coudet will be going all out to continue that form as they go into battle with Athletico PR at Arena de Baixada on Sunday night.

Palmeiras v Flamengo - Half Time / Full Time - away+away

Abel Fernando Moreira Ferreira won't be looking forward to going up against Flamengo in Serie A on Sunday. A. Bacchi's side have been winning at HT and gone on to win at fulltime in more games than any other team in the Serie A this season - 2 times in total. That stat suggests it may be a long night for Palmeiras, and that backing Flamengo in the halftime fulltime market would be a strong bet at odds of 6.00.

Vitoria v Bahia - Both Teams To Score - yes

Supporters at will be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Sunday, and they're right to, if Bahia's recent record is to be continued. We've seen BTTS in 2 of their 2 Serie A fixtures this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
