Joinville vs Bangu tips and predictions

Joinville not guaranteed to hold all the aces against Bangu

The hosts are clearly the right favourites but this preview has found no reason to back them.

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Joinville makes them unbackable. Bangu don't look likely to get the win but they can put up some resistance.

It's always possible that things fail to meet expectations in a match that's played on Joinville's terms. But if you look at the odds for the Both Teams To Score market, the Yes bet must not be ruled out. It is more likely than the odds imply.

Joinville have drawn 10 of their last 19 matches, including their most recent match when they drew 1-1 with Bangu last week. Bangu have drawn 6 of their last 17 matches. They drew with Joinville last week and while any draw is predicted, a 1-1 scoreline cannot be written off here. It's not a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to sit on the fence about. A deadlock awaits.
