We have two fixtures to look forward to in the Brazilian Serie A on the 9 of July including the meeting between Red Bull Bragantino and Avaí.
The match will take place at the Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid and the hosts begin this round of fixtures in 14th place on 18 points while the visitors are in 11th place, also on 18 points.
Red Bull Bragantino come into the game on the back of a 1-0 loss at home against Botafogo. The only goal of the match was scored in the 64th minute and Red Bull Bragantino finished the match with 10 men having had a player sent off at the end of the game.
That was the third successive match without a win for Red Bull Bragantino having previously been held to a 2-2 draw at Santos and defeated 4-2 at Athletico Paranaense, all of which have been in Serie A.
In fact, Red Bull Bragantino have recorded just a single victory from their 5 most recent fixtures in all competitions and have won only 2 of their last 15 games.
Red Bull Bragantino have won 2 of their last 3 home league matches but have achieved only 2 wins from their last 7 at the Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid. Red Bull Bragantino have kept just a single clean sheet in their 7 most recent home Serie A matches.
Avaí make the trip to the Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid having previously lost 2-1 at home to Cuiabá. Avaí opened the scoring in the 30th minute and led at the interval but conceded 2 goals in the second half, with the winning goal coming in the 64th minute.
That result means Avaí have failed to win any of their 3 most recent games, all of which have been in Serie A.
In addition to the loss at home against Cuiabá, there was a 2-0 defeat at Fluminense and a 2-2 draw at home against Palmeiras.
Away form in Serie A shows Avaí have been struggling and they have lost 4 of their last 5 away league fixtures. In fact, Avaí have recorded just a single victory from their last 16 away Serie A matches, which is a poor record.
Trends show Avaí have conceded 2 goals in 4 of their last 5 away games but have found the back of the net themselves in 4 of those 5 matches.
Team news and Red Bull Bragantino will be without Eric Ramires following his red card. Jose Hurtado, Ytalo, and Emiliano Martínez are on the treatment table.
Avaí have five players unavailable for this game due to injury, with Matheus Galdezani, Jean Cléber, Bressan, Renato Silva, and Romulo all missing out.
Both teams need a win to move away from the bottom four and we expect to see the hosts come out on top. Avaí have a poor away record and although they may find the back of the net, Red Bull Bragantino should score the 2 goals they need to claim maximum points.
