Football – Brazil – Serie A Betting Tips

It’s back to the Brazilian top flight for Sunday afternoon’s action and a clash between high-flying Flamengo and Sport Recife as my betting tips continue in Serie A.

Flamengo currently sit top of Serie A with a two point margin over second placed Sao Paulo, but they’ll be looking to put further daylight between themselves and the chasing pack this Sunday at their Estádio Luso-Brasileiro in Rio de Janeiro, having lost just once in their last 10 matches overall.

That rare defeat came in a 1-0 loss at home to the aforementioned Sao Paulo, but otherwise, Flamengo have been fairly reliable on home turf this season, winning six of their eight matches played to date within an overall record of  6-1-1  12/2.

The hosts have won four of their last five which includes wins against Bahia, Corinthians, Parana and Botafogo, while keeping a total of 6 clean sheets from their 8 home matches so far this season. Perhaps another win to nil beckons here?

Sport Recife on the other hand, haven’t exactly been enjoying life in the Brazilian top flight in recent weeks as their form has seen the visitors slump to four defeats from their last five matches overall, with defeats suffered against Vasco da Gama, Ceara, Fluminense and Vitoria.

And although they currently occupy the last qualifying spot for the Copa Sudamerica heading into this weekend’s action, an away record of  2-1-5  7/13 certainly doesn’t fill me with any confidence that they can get something out of their trip to Rio today.

Neither do three defeats on the trot away from home either, and having failed to hit the back of the net in 5 of their 8 away matches to date, this could be a long afternoon for Sport Recife.
