Sport Recife vs Murici Prediction & Betting Tips (13 March)

Having triumphed at their one of the past 5 games of the season, Murici have since gone on to lose eight of their next ten matches at the top table of the Copa do Brasil. Sport Recife, by way of contrast, have enjoyed 13 wins in their previous 20 home games at this level, so the club from the capital will be confident of putting Copa do Brasil bottom side to the sword.

This Sport Recife side is not exactly renowned for playing exciting football, with a staggering 14 of their previous 17 matches in the Copa do Brasil delivering no more than a couple of goals. High-flying Murici have followed a similar pattern in the top-flight recently, as nine of Sport Recife outfit’s last 12 games have also served up under 2.5 goals.

Over the course of their last 17 fixtures in the Copa do Brasil, Sport Recife have been involved in just four encounters in which they have both scored and conceded during the same 90 minutes. Although Murici cannot quite match these levels of consistency, at least one of the two keepers has emerged with a clean sheet in 12 of their previous 19 third-tier games.
