São Paulo Cruzeiro betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is the occurrence of few goals. Cruzeiro no longer has great pretensions in the Series A and should play in a more relaxed way, without exposing itself so much, besides having a solid defense that is the fifth less leaked of the competition. In addition, São Paulo's offensive power has fallen a lot in the last rounds, the team has found difficulties in the creation and finishes little and usually performed little moved games at its stadium, so much that 8 of the last 9 games finished with, at most, 2 goals on the scoreboard. Given these factors, we believe in a low offensive game and few goals.

Preview
São Paulo and Cruzeiro meet at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo (Morumbi), in a match for the 35th round of the Serie A. São Paulo got an away win by (0‑2), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 29‑07‑2018. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 5 wins and 1 loss in the last 6 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 13‑08‑2017, in a match for the Serie A, São Paulo won by (3‑2). The goals of the match were scored by Hernanes (45' and 82' ) and R. Arboleda (71' ), for São Paulo, and by Sassá (51' and 57' ), for Cruzeiro.

Analysis São Paulo

After 15 wins, 14 draws and 5 losses, the home team is in the 5th position, havinf won 59 points so far. In the last match, they have tied at home against Grêmio by (1‑1), after in the previous match they have tied (1‑1) an away match against Corinthians. In the last 10 home league matches São Paulo has a record of 4 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 17 points out of 30 possible. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 0‑0 (8 out of 17 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 34 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 17 home matches for this competition: they have suffered 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

São Paulo registered another draw in the last round, the fifth in the last 10 games, and they must find the way back to the wins as they fight for a spot in the group stage of the next Copa Libertadores. The team has a good balance between the offensive and defensive sectors, having scored 45 goals, having the sixth best attack of the competition, and suffered 31 goals, having the sixth less leaked defense, but in the later rounds it has been creating little and needs to play a little more aggressive in this final stretch.
Playing at home, like Sunday's match, São Paulo has not won for 5 games, having drawn 4 of them, so much so that it is the second team with more home draws (7 draws in 17 games) and it is worth mentioning that 8 of the last 9 games in this type of situation had, at most, 2 goals on the scoreboard.
For the confrontation with Cruzeiro, coach André Jardine should repeat the lineup of the last round.

Confirmed Lineup: Jean, Bruno Peres, Reinaldo, Robert Arboleda, Bruno Alves, Hudson, Shaylon, Jucilei, Éverton Cardoso, Diego Souza, Nenê.
Coach: R. Mücke Ceni.

Analysis Cruzeiro

The away team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 49 points won, after 13 wins, 10 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Atlético PR, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Corinthians, by (1‑0). In the last 10 away league matches Cruzeiro has a record of 1 win, 4 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 7 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (10 out of 17 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 15 of the last 17 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 34 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 18 times and have only turned the score around in 3.

Cruzeiro arrives for this final stretch already without great pretensions, as it has no title chances and has already won the place for the Copa Libertadores through the Brazil Cup title. The team has a good quality defense that has suffered 31 goals and is the fifth less leaked of the competition, while the offensive sector, despite having several quality athletes, has performed well below expectations, scored only 31 goals, having the fourth worst attack of the competition, being a team that prioritizes not to suffer goals and then attack.
Playing away from home, such as Sunday's match, Cruzeiro has been playing badly, winning only 1 of the last 12 games and it is worth mentioning that it did not score goals in 6 of them, evidencing again the low efficiency of its attack.
For the game against São Paulo, coach Mano Menezes should repeat the lineup of the last game where he beat Corinthians.

Confirmed Lineup: Fábio, Edílson, Egídio, Manoel, Léo, Alejandro Cabral, Robinho, Henrique, Thiago Neves, Hernán Barcos, David da Fonseca.
Coach: N. Larcamón.
