Goias vs Sao Paulo Prediction and Betting Tips
Goias and Sao Paulo go head-to-head at the Estadio da Serrinha in round 27 of the Brasileiro Serie A on Wednesday (October 18).
Goias failed to find their feet last time out, as they fell to a 6-4 loss against Bahia in an action-packed contest at the Estadio da Serrinha. Armando Evangelista’s side have gone seven games without a win, losing twice, since a 1-0 win over America Mineiro in August.
With 27 points from 26 games, Goias are 18th in the Serie A standings, level on points with 17th-placed Vasco da Gama.
Meanwhile, Sao Paulo were left with a sour taste of disappointment last time out, as they were held to a goalless by Vasco da Gama, despite being in the ascendancy for large swathes.
Before that, Dorival Junior’s men were on a two-game winning streak in the league, claiming successive wins over Coritiba and Corinthians respectively. With 35 points from 26 games, Sao Paulo are tenth in the points table, two points above second-placed Cuiaba.
