Under 1.5 goals at CSA vs Ponte Preta 8/5 for Wednesday’s Brazil Serie B battle

Competition: Brazil Serie B

Market: Under 1.5 goals

Odds: 8/5 @ 888sport

In a showdown from Brazil’s second-tier that could prove to be another cagey affair on Thursday night, CSA will host Ponte Preta.

Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another toothless display, CSA really find themselves battling it out at the foot of the Serie B table. In their 16 second-tier matchups so far this season, they have recorded just two wins, 10 draws and four defeats, scoring nine and conceding 13 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 16, they open the midweek fixtures sat down in 17th and one point adrift of climbing out of the relegation zone. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen playing out a 0-0 stalemate against Londrina, CSA have failed to win any of their last seven Serie B matchups. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, along with Thursday’s hosts failing to find the net in three of their last four second-tier contests, CSA have also seen four of their last five home fixtures finish with under 2.5 goals.

As for the visitors, also in the midst of what has become an extended rut, Ponte Preta really find themselves in a similar position to their midweek opponents. In their 16 Serie B matchups so far this season, they have recorded three wins, six draws and seven defeats, scoring nine and conceding 14 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 15, they open the midweek fixtures sat down in 18th and one point adrift of Thursday’s hosts. As for their recent run of results, last seen playing out their own 0-0 stalemate against Tombense on home soil, Ponte Preta have failed to win any of their previous five second-tier matchups. However, it should be noted, with the Serie B relegation scrappers also failing to find the net in three of their last four outings, another cagey affair in midweek can be found at attractive odds.
