Betting suggestion:

This match faces two teams that have done extremely different campaigns throughout the competition, and now face different situations in the final stretch of the Brasileirão. While Cruzeiro has been strong among the top six, Avaí sees the relegation approaching, occupying the penultimate position in the qualifying table.
The home team risks a lot from outside the area and stands out in deep balls, while its defense shows strength in tackles and in the aerial game.
Avaí bets a lot in set pieces, but it has a lot of difficulty to maintain ball possession, and has been extremely inefficient at the time of finishing, while its defense fails in set pieces. 
In this way, by having a much superior cast and playing at home, it is a good option to bet on the victory of Cruzeiro.

Preview
Cruzeiro and Avaí meet at Estádio Governador Magalhães Pinto, in a match for the 35th round of the Serie A. Avaí got a home win by (1‑0), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 23‑07‑2017. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the away team, since they have a record of 1 win and 2 draws in the last 3 matches. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Cruzeiro

After 15 wins, 9 draws and 10 losses, the home team is in the 6th position, havinf won 51 points so far. In the last match, they have won at home against Fluminense by (3‑1), after in the previous match they have lost (2‑0) an away match against Flamengo. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 7 draws and 1 loss at their stadium. In the last 10 home league matches Cruzeiro has a record of 5 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 19 points out of 30 possible. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (6 out of 17 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches for this competition there is a tendency for few goals, since 12 of the last 17 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 13 of their 34 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

Cruzeiro has a chance to add its third consecutive victory for the Brazilian Championship, and thus compensate for the not very good results accumulated away from home, where it has not won for three matches, and in two of them, failed to score goals. 
Looking at the numbers of the competition, we can see that who is guaranteeing the good performance of the team is the defensive sector, which is among the four less leaked. However, the attack has not been presenting good performance, but has done its part, like the last round, when it scored three times and defeated Fluminense in a game where the team finished a lot and missed very few passes. 
For this game, coach Mano Menezes should keep the team in the 4-2-3-1, with highlight for Thiago Neves, who scored a goal and gave two assists in the last game.

Confirmed Lineup: Fábio, Rafael Galhardo, Diogo Barbosa, Léo, Digão, Lucas Romero, Robinho, Henrique, Thiago Neves, Rafinha, Jonata.
Coach: N. Larcamón.

Analysis Avaí

The away team is currently in the 19th position of the league, with 35 points won, after 8 wins, 11 draws and 15 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Bahia, by (1‑2). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Corinthians, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 2 wins, 8 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Avaí has a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 11 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 13 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 16 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 17 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 12 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Avaí is going through a very critical moment in this final stretch of the Brazilian Championship, considering that it has not won four rounds and comes from three straight defeats, when it scored only one goal. 
In its last clash, the team did not have a good performance against the leader Corinthians, ending the game with only 34% of ball possession and seven finalizations. However, the defense acted consistently, so much so that the Corinthian attack only managed to score once. As seen in this round, who has been the main responsible for the disastrous campaign of the team is the offensive sector, being the worst of the competition, having not scored goals in fifteen games, appearing as the one that least finishes. 
The team from Santa Catarina also has been failing in the exchange of passes and in ball possession, questions in which it has the worst average among the twenty teams. 
For now, everything indicates that the coach can go to the field with maximum force.

Confirmed Lineup: Douglas Friedrich, Maicon, João Paulo, Alemão, Betão, Welington Simião, Judson, Marquinhos, Pedro Castro, Rômulo, Júnior Dutra.
Coach: C. dos Santos Oliveira.
