Posted July 2nd, 2021 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: Brazil Serie A

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 1/2 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the Brazil Serie A table, América Mineiro will host Santos late on Saturday night.

Starting with the hosts, managing to land what was a much-needed victory earlier in the week, there is no doubt that América Mineiro are desperate to build off of that result. In their opening eight Serie A matchups so far this season, they have recorded just a single win, three draws and four defeats, scoring seven and conceding 11 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of just six out of a possible 24, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat down in 16th and holding just a one-point buffer from dropping into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen earlier in the week landing that action-packed 4-3 win away at Bahia, América Mineiro have got a recent reputation for their lively outcomes. It should be noted, Saturday’s hosts have seen each of their last four straight Serie A contests finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, while Santos would have been disappointed to have had to settle for a single point earlier in the week, they are enjoying an extended unbeaten run. In their eight Serie A matchups since opening the 2021 campaign, the former champions have recorded three wins, three draws and just a pair of defeats, scoring nine and conceding seven in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 12, The White and Blacks open this weekend’s fixtures sat seventh in the table and with just their goal difference keeping them outside of the top-six. As for their recent run of results, despite settling for a stalemate against Sport Recife last time out, Santos are unbeaten in each of their last four Serie A matchups. However, showing some real inconsistencies on the road and with nine of their last 10 fixtures across all formats finishing with over 1.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
