APWin Prediction

BTTS - Yes

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

👉 Our prediction is: Over 2.5 goals in the match

Cruzeiro and Mirassol are two attacking sides who have what it takes to make this an entertaining and eventful match.

That's why we highly recommend taking the bet of over 2.5 goals. The bet wins if there are 3 or more goals scored in the match, and if there are 2 goals or fewer, the bet loses.

👉 Our prediction is: Mirassol win or draw

Our evaluations have shown there is not much separating Cruzeiro and Mirassol overall. But given the extra betting edge that comes with the Double Chance market, where a win or a draw is enough to win the bet, we recommend taking Mirassol to win or draw in this match.

With odds of 2.03, there is a good deal of value on Mirassol to pull off a potential upset away from home against Cruzeiro, who have not been in the best form of late.
