EC Guarani vs Avenida tips and predictions

EC Guarani can hold off Avenida

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Avenida makes them a no-bet. EC Guarani don't look likely to get the win but they might keep the visitors honest. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away about.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. In their last 3 matches EC Guarani have only conceded 0.7 goals, while Avenida have conceded only 1 goal in their last 4 away matches.

Few would argue with the idea that only one side is likely to score because of the favouritism for Avenida. In the Both Teams To Score market, the No option is the pick. And in the total goals line, it's Under 1.5 goals picked as the best play given the current prices.

EC Guarani drew one of their last 3 matches coupled with the fact that Avenida have drawn 9 of their last 20 away matches. It's not very exciting and it feels like a match to be on your guard about but the draw is food for thought. Deadlock is the pick after what looks set to be a tightly contested match-up.
