Ace Football presents detailed betting tips on the upcoming Serie A games of the weekend.
As we prepare for another matchday of the Serie A campaign, our experts take a look at the bookmakers’ predictions for the upcoming games.
Let’s check out three betting tips for Matchday 21 of the Brazilian top-flight.
Expect goals on both sides when Avai host Corinthians
Avai continued their awful run of three consecutive defeats when they lost 3-1 to America MG last week.
Next up, they must face Corinthians, who come into the game on the back of a 2-0 defeat in the Libertadores quarter-finals.
We expect Corinthians to find enough goalscoring chances in the upcoming game, given their excellent attacking form in the league.
However, their recent defensive struggles convince us Avai also have a good chance of finding the back of the net in the upcoming match.
Back Santos to beat Coritiba
Santos stayed unbeaten for the third consecutive match when they drew 2-2 against Fluminense on Tuesday.
They hope to get back to winning ways by beating Coritiba this week, and we expect them to achieve that.
Coritiba have lost three of their last four games, conceding six goals. We expect them to spend most of the upcoming match in their own half, hoping to prevent Santos from scoring.
However, Santos’ attacking stats convince us they can outscore their opponents on Tuesday.
Don’t expect goals when Atletico take on Athletico
Atletico Mineiro lost 3-0 against Internacional last Sunday, a result that once again highlighted their attacking issues.
This Monday, they must face Athletico Paranaense, who come into the game on the back of their 1-0 win over Sao Paulo.
We expect Atletico Mineiro to push for a home win in the upcoming game. However, a combination of the hosts’ poor attacking form and Athletico-PR’s recent defensive improvement convince us that we won’t see many goals when the two sides meet.
