Bitesize Prediction: America MG vs Avai – 31/07/22

Competition: Brazil Serie A

Market: Both teams to score – No

Odds: 3/4 @ 888sport

In what could be another cagey affair from Brazil’s Serie A this weekend, America MG will welcome Avai to the Arena Independência on Sunday night.

Starting with the hosts, making an immediate return to losing ways earlier in the week as they came crashing out of the Copa do Brasil, America MG are enduring a recent blip. Still battling it out at the foot of the Serie A table and coming crashing back down to earth after an impressive campaign last season, Head Coach Vagner Mancini has seen his side lose three of their last four outings. With it looking like their 1-0 victory away at Atletico GO last weekend could have just been a minor boost, America MG have also shown some real problems in the final third. Bagging just a single strike in any of their last four matchups across all formats, they have also failed to score more than a single goal in a contest over the past month. Likewise, Sunday’s hosts have also drawn a blank in four of their last six appearances at the Arena Independência.

As for the visitors, last seen throwing away the lead against Flamengo on home soil, Avai are another top-flight outfit at the heart of a relegation scrap. With many tipping Eduardo Barroca’s side to be hit with an immediate Serie B return this season, the Santa Catarina-based outfit have lost four of their last five outings. Likewise, along with winning just one of their last seven outings across all formats, a run that stems back to June 16th, they have shown some extended problems on the road. Losing each of their last three outings away from the Ressacada by an aggregate score of 7-0, Avai have also recorded just a single away victory so far this season. It should be highlighted, with Sunday’s guests failing to bag a single strike in any of those three consecutive away day defeats, we’re backing what could be another cagey affair here.

Bet: Both teams *not* to score at America MG vs Avai 3/4 for Sunday’s Brazil Serie A battle @ 888sport
