Brazil Serie A Betting Tips (2023): 3 Picks for Matchday 16

Ace Football presents detailed betting tips on the upcoming Serie A games of the weekend.

As we prepare for another matchday of the Brazilian 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 16 of the Brazilian top flight.

Goals likely on both sides when Flamengo meet America MG

Flamengo have slipped 12 points behind league leaders Botafogo after their back-to-back draws against Fluminense and Palmeiras. This weekend, they will take on America MG, who haven’t won any of their last five league games.

Given Flamengo’s fantastic attacking consistency in home games, we expect them to find the back of the net against America MG’s out-of-form backline.

On the other hand, the visitors have also scored in all of their matches since May 28, suggesting both sides will find a lot of goalscoring opportunities on Saturday.

Back Cruzeiro to beat Goias

Cruzeiro boast the second-best defensive stats in the entire league despite sitting tenth on the table. This weekend, the Raposa will take on Goias, who are on a run of four winless matches.

Given the visitors’ poor defensive form, we expect Cruzeiro to find enough chances to score in the upcoming match. On the other hand, Cruzeiro’s fantastic defensive run in recent weeks convinces us that they will outscore their opponents.

Don’t expect goals when Bragantino face Internacional

Bragantino suffered a 2-0 defeat against in-form Botafogo last weekend, slipping to seventh spot on the Serie A table. This Sunday, they will take on Internacional, who come into the game on the back of a goalless draw against Palmeiras.

Bragantino’s record of scoring only one goal in their last three league games suggests they might struggle to find the back of the net against Internacional.

The visitors have conceded only three goals in their last five league games. However, their poor attacking stats in away games suggest they also don’t have a great chance of scoring in the upcoming fixture.
