APWin Prediction

Over 2.5 Goals

After a thorough assessment of the primary betting markets, APWin analysts have identified bets with strong value potential.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

We expect that corners will be hard to come by in the Criciúma vs Paysandu match. Neither team has been able to create too many corner opportunities this season with how they have played, and this figures to be another match with a low corner count.

So for this match, we recommend betting on under 9.5 corners, where 9 total corners or fewer between the two teams will win the bet.

👉 Our prediction is: Criciúma win or draw

Our top betting tip is Criciúma to win or draw on the Double Chance market. What that means is Criciúma, the home team, must win or draw for the bet to win, and we feel strongly that the match will end in one of those two outcomes.

We simply don't see Criciúma losing to Paysandu. More than the gulf in quality between the two sides which is clear to see in the statistics, we also have a lot of belief in Criciúma's ability to make home advantage count in this match.
