Bitesize Prediction: Cortibia vs Sao Paulo – 10/06/22

Competition: Brazil Serie A

Market: Under 2.5 goals

Odds: 4/6 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at the top of Brazil’s top-flight, Cortibia will welcome Sao Paulo to the Estádio Couto Pereira in the early hours of Friday.

Starting with the hosts, last seen mounting a late comeback as they snatched a 1-1 draw away at Ceara, Cortibia will be desperate to build off of those positives. Still impressing many across Brazil since opening the 2022 campaign and even dreaming of mounting a Copa Libertadores charge, Head Coach Gustavo Morinigo should be calling on his side to find some stability. Now managing to win just one of their last four Serie A contests, the Paraná-based outfit should be boosted by a rather rampant record on home soil. Last seen at the Estádio Couto Pereira picking up an eye-catching 1-0 victory against Botafogo, Cortibia have in fact won each of their last six home fixtures across all formats, a run that stems all the way back to March 27th. Likewise, it should also be noted, Friday’s hosts have seen three of their last four matchups in Paraná finish with under 1.5 goals.

As for the visitors, once again seen last weekend having to settle for a single point, Sao Paulo have gained a recent reputation as a stalemate specialist. Eventually playing out a 1-1 draw away at Avai, the Tricolour have now played out a stalemate in each of their last three Serie A contests. However, suffering just a single defeat from any of their previous 12 matchups across all formats, a run that stems back to April 17th, Head Coach Rogério Ceni should find the mood in his camp at a high. With their own sights set on clinching a Copa Libertadores spot this season, the Whites will be desperate to lay down a marker on Friday. However, it should be highlighted, with Sao Paulo seeing three of their last four fixtures across all formats finish with under 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
