The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.
Our prediction is: Barra win or draw
We feel strongly about Barra's chances of leaving with a point, or maybe even more. That is why our betting tip is Barra to win or draw on the Double Chance market.
Barra has shown considerable courage and determination in their recent away performances, while Maringá's form has not been the most convincing. So while an away win might be too much to ask for, Barra is more than capable of collecting a point in this match.
Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match
From what they have shown thus far this season, Maringá and Barra both tend to play quite defensive styles and like to keep things tight in midfield.
As a result, we predict the total going under 2.5 goals to be the most attractive betting option for this upcoming match.
