WWLWLL

Grêmio won’t want a repeat of their last result here after a 4-1 Serie A losing effort in their last game against Mirassol.

In that game, Grêmio had 59% possession and 16 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. The only player to score for Grêmio was Martin Braithwaite (82'). Mirassol had 11 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. Daniel Borges (3', 85') and Reinaldo (21', 78') scored for Mirassol.

It’s been all too rare in recent times that Grêmio have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Grêmio have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, leaking 9 goals during that time.

Going into this contest, Grêmio are winless against Internacional in their previous 3 league games.

• are unbeaten in their previous 2 away league matches.
• have not won away from home in their last 4 matches in the league.

ℹ️ Team News: Grêmio

Cristian Olivera (Dental surgery), Mayk (Hamstring injury) and Rodrigo Ely (Cruciate ligament tear) aren’t available for Grêmio manager Gustavo Quinteros.

We think that Tricolor dos Pampas could use a 4-2-3-1 system for the game with Tiago Volpi, Joao Pedro, Jemerson, Wagner Leonardo, Lucas Esteves, Camilo, Mathias Villasanti, Cristian Pavon, Franco Cristaldo, Francis Amuzu and Martin Braithwaite.

📋 Team News: Internacional

Internacional boss Roger Machado has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Wesley (muscular problems), Johan Carbonero (Hamstring injury), Juninho (Hamstring injury), Sergio Rochet (Broken hand), Gabriel Mercado (Cruciate ligament tear), Bruno Gomes (Cruciate ligament tear), Victor Gabriel (Hamstring injury) and Lucca Drummond (Cruciate ligament injury) can’t be considered.

It’s our belief that Colorado will likely make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup, going with Anthoni, Braian Aguirre, Agustin Rogel, Vitao, Alexandro Bernabei, Bruno Henrique, Fernando, Vitinho, Alan Patrick, Tabata and Enner Valencia.

💡 Prediction

Looking at these two, we feel that Internacional and Grêmio could well both score and end up finding themselves in a fairly even game here.

A close call, and we think a draw is quite likely. We’re therefore anticipating a 1-1 score draw at the conclusion of the game.
