Treze PB vs CRB Prediction & Betting Tips (15 February)

Although results have picked up a bit recently, the fact that Treze PB have recorded just two victories in their previous 12 top-flight home fixtures, losing on five occasions, goes a long way towards explaining why they find themselves locked in a difficult battle. As for title-chasing CRB, they have triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late.

Ten of the last 13 Treze PB matches in the Copa do Nordeste have served up two goals or fewer, so there is no reason to expect anything different in what is an important game for both sides. In fact, eight of the previous 11 CRB away games at this level have also been of the under 2.5 goals variety, meaning that it would come as a shock to see three goals or more.

At least one of the two keepers has emerged with a clean sheet from 12 of the most recent 17 Treze PB matches on their own patch in the Copa do Nordeste, so thrills and spills have been few and far between. Given that seven of the previous ten CRB away games at this level have followed the same pattern, any deviation from this script would come as a shock.
