Criciuma vs Atletico GO Prediction & Betting Tips (4 October)

Although their home ground can justifiably be accused of lacking atmosphere, Criciuma have not let that detract from recent performances, with the former champions enjoying four wins on the spin in front of their own supporters in the Serie A Betano. As for Atletico GO, they clearly do not travel well, suffering nine defeats in 18 top-flight trips and winning only once along the way.

Both meetings between these two teams in the playoffs last season served up under 2.5 goals, meaning that Criciuma have now been involved in seven consecutive matches of this low-scoring variety. As for Atletico GO, seven of their previous ten away games at this level have produced no more than a couple of goals, so don’t expect a feast of attacking football.

Over the course of their last 19 Serie A Betano matches, Atletico GO have kept an impressive tally of 14 clean sheets, so finding a way through against Atletico GO can prove difficult. Given that just three of the most recent 13 top-flight fixtures involving Criciuma have served up goals at both ends of the pitch, it is hard to see much of a deviation from the script.
