Serie A stats and tips

Bragantino v Juventude - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw

Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid is the venue as Bragantino and Juventude clash on Saturday night, in what might just be a tight affair. Pedro Miguel Faria Caixinha's side have the highest number of BTTS + draws of any club in the league - 3 in 6 outings. An extension of that record can be backed at 6.50.

Vitoria v Internacional - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's exactly what must be done by Vitória boss Leonardo Rodrigues Condé on Saturday. His team faces Internacional having lost each of their last 3 Serie A games.

Fluminese v Atletico Go - Double Chance - home win or draw

What a dismal run of results for Atlético Go and their supporters, with their last Serie A victory now coming 5 games ago. Boss J. Ribeiro Ventura has to find a solution, and quickly. Will Fluminense at Estadio Jornalista Mário Filho on Saturday provide some relief?

Gremio v Botafogo - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over

Botafogo have been Serie A's showmen this term, at least in terms of delivering goal-filled games. No other team can boast more than their record of having been involved in 1 games with at least 6 goals scored this season. Can they bring their tally to 2 when they take on Gremio on Sunday morning? With odds of 19.00 on offer, it might be one to watch.

Criciuma v Bahia - Half Time / Full Time - away / away

Those that favour the half time/full time market should pay attention to Bahia. Rogério Mücke Ceni's side has been remarkably commanding in recent Serie A games, winning at HT in each of their last 3 and going on to win them all at FT. Criciuma on Sunday afternoon could well be more of the same.

Athletico PR v Flamengo - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

A. Bacchi won't be relishing the prospect of playing Athletico PR in Serie A on Sunday. A. Stival's side have been ahead at HT and gone on to claim victory at fulltime in more games than any other side in the Serie A this term - 3 times in total. That stat suggests it may be a difficult night for Flamengo, and that backing Athletico PR in the HT FT market could be a smart move at odds of 4.00.

Corinthians v Sao Paulo - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under

Supporters travelling to Arena Corinthians this Sunday to watch Corinthians and Sao Paulo might already be fearing a tedious night, and who could blame them? A. Cardoso de Oliveira's players have played their part in 2 matches with under 0.5 goals this season, the highest number of any team in Serie A. Will anyone score? You can bet against it at best odds of 7.00.

A Mineiro v Palmeiras - Double Chance - home win or draw

Gabriel Alejandro Milito and his Atlético Mineiro team have developed a useful habit of claiming something from just about every Serie A fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 5 in Serie A now, so Abel Fernando Moreira Ferreira and his Palmeiras team will need to be on top of their game if they're to get the win at Arena MRV on Sunday.

Cuiaba v Fortaleza - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's the task facing Cuiabá boss L. Iubel on Sunday. His side face Fortaleza having failed to get anything but defeat out of their last 4 Serie A outings.

Vasco d Gama v Cruzeiro - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Common or not, every football fan loves to see a match in which 5 goals or more are scored, but Vasco da Gama's dedicated fans have now been waiting 8 matches to watch their club take part in one. That’s too long by anyone’s count. Will the run be broken on Sunday night, as they face Nicolás Ricardo Larcamón's Cruzeiro at Estádio Club de Regatas Vasco da? With odds of 1.07 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookies certainly don’t think so.
