Ponte Preta vs Criciuma Live Stream, Predictions (Jul 08)

📊 Form Guide

Ponte Preta

DLLLLL 🔻

Ponte Preta won’t want a repeat of their last result here after the 2-0 Serie B losing effort in their last game against Fortaleza.

Maílton (84') scored for Fortaleza.

A recurring aspect of recent Ponte Preta games is the high number of scores with a nil in them.

From their prior sextet of matches leading up to this one, in 5 of them a wager on BTTS would've been a loser. That kind of pattern isn’t assured to follow through here, of course.

Their past results show that Ponte Preta:

• have not emerged victorious against Criciuma in their last 7 league matches.
• haven’t won at home in the past 5 league games. That's never good.

Criciuma

WWDWWW 📈

Criciuma come into this encounter following a 1-0 Serie B win in the defeat of Sport Recife in their last game.

Over the course of 5 of the previous six clashes involving Criciuma, a comparatively low number of goals have been scored between them and their opponents. The overall average goals scored per game during that period works out to a mere 1.33, with the average goals for Tigrão equalling 1.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Criciuma:

• remain undefeated by Ponte Preta in games played away from home for the previous 3 league matches.
• haven't been defeated in their previous 5 away league matches.

💭 Prediction

Ponte Preta may not find it easy to break down this Criciuma side who should do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.

We’re therefore tipping a highly competitive game with a 0-1 victory for Criciuma at the end of the match.

Let’s see.
