Football – Brazil – Serie A Betting Tips

Gremio will look to put a disappointing loss last weekend behind them tonight when they take on Sport Recife at their Arena do Gremio as they seek to keep their bid going for a Copa Libertadores place.

Interestingly, Gremio’s two recent defeats from their last eight matches were both away from home with losses at Chapecoense and Flamengo (both by 1-0 scorelines) but they now return to more familiar surroundings where they’ve racked up six wins from their seven matches so far this season.

Gremio’s overall home record reads a satisfying  6-1-0  13/5 and amongst the wins has been a solid defence which has kept four clean sheets to date this term including three shut-outs on the trot heading into tonight’s encounter.

Visitors Sport Recife did what was expected of them in the last round of fixtures as they secured all three points in a solid 2-0 home win over Sao Paulo, but they’re expected to face a much stiffer test in tonight’s clash at Gremio.

Sport Recife have lost just once all season in the Brazilian top flight which was a recent 2-1 loss away at Atletico Mineiro but they’re yet to gain a win on their travels as they’ve been held to a number of draws on the road.

An away record of  0-5-1  8/9 suggests that they’re happy to take a point away from home where they’ve also been strong, having won seven of their eight matches to date.

But I’ll back today’s hosts Gremio to take the points here in what could perhaps be a narrow 1-0 win for the home side. Give the three-quarter ball in this one.
