Santa Cruz Figueirense betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

A match between two teams in similar realities in Brazil. However, Figueirense has a better recent history, as they played in Division I 6 times in the last decade, and was relegated after 3 consecutive years in the top division. Santa Cruz spent most of the last 10 years between Divisions III and IV, having played in Division I only once. The home team has a bad defense, but Figueirense is even worse. So we expect a balanced match, between two teams that aren't having positive campaigns, so a draw is a possibility, but with greater chances for the home team.

Figueirense registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

After 4 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, the home team is in the 9th position, havinf won 13 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against América Mineiro by (1‑0), after in the previous match they have tied (0‑0) at home, against Internacional. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. In the last 4 home league matches Santa Cruz has a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so they have won 7 points out of 12 possible. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 9 matches for this competition. They haven't been able to score the first goal.

They have conceded the first goal in 6 of their 9 matches for this competition, but have been able to turn the score around in 2.

Santa Cruz will be back home in this competition trying to get back to winning, as they had a draw in the previous home match, and a tough loss in their previous away match. At home, they are having a reasonable campaign, wth 7 out of 12 points so far. Their defense at home isn't so good, as they conceded 5 goals in 4 matches, and in one of these their attack wasn't able to score. In this match, they should maintain a 4-4-1-1 or 4-3-3 formation.

Coach: E. de Toledo Piza.

Analysis Figueirense

The away team is currently in the 19th position of the league, with 8 points won, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Paraná, by (1‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Luverdense, by (2‑3). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 9 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 21 conceded.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 7 matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 9 matches for this competition. In 9 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 11 of their 27 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Figueirense heads into their 10th match in this competition needing a positive result to put an end to their terrible phase, as they have 7 consecutive rounds without a win and 2 consecutive losses, the previous one at home. As a visitor, they have one of the worst campaigns in the league, with 4 ot of 12 points so far. Their attack away from home is one of the worst, with 3 goals in 4 matches, and in 2 of them they weren't able to score. In this match, they should maintain a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Robson as their highlight.

Confirmed Lineup: Thiago Rodrigues, Dudu, Marquinhos, Bruno Alves, Guilherme Lazaroni, Zé Antonio, Robinho, Marco Antônio, Dudu Vieira, Henan, Jorge Henrique.
Coach: J. da Silva.
