Goias

DDWWDW 📈

Goias are hoping to win again after their last result, a 1-2 Serie B triumph versus Confiança.

Goias have not been the best at stopping their opponents of late, but they have also done enough to convert their own chances into goals. Over their last 6 matches, Goias have been punished defensively in 5 of them in addition to getting on the scoresheet in 6 of those games. We will have to see if that trend will be continued on here.

Leading up to this clash, Goias:

• have not lost a league tie with Cruzeiro in their last 2 games.
• are undefeated in their previous 5 home league matches.

📋 Team News: Goias

The Goias manager Luís Pintado will be grateful not to have any fitness worries whatsoever ahead of this clash thanks to a fully injury-free group available to choose from.

🗞️ Team News: Cruzeiro

Thanks to a mainly full-strength squad, there’s just a single fitness issue for the Cruzeiro boss Felipe Conceição to be concerned with. Sassá (Unknown Injury) won’t be playing here.

🔮 Prediction

Our feeling is that Cruzeiro might well have a job on their hands to find the net against this Goias outfit who we reckon should end up scoring and staying ahead.

We’re therefore seeing a very even match with a 1-0 advantage for Goias after 90 minutes.

Should be a close one.
