Santos v Internacional Betting Tips [3 June 2023]

Santos will look to halt their three-game losing streak when they host Internacional in the Brasileirão competition. This ninth-round match will see the 12th-placed hosts looking to get one up over their 13th-placed visitors with only a point separating them. Santos were knocked out of the Cup competition by Bahia, with the defeat making it three straight losses. In fact, the hosts are winless in five competitive matches including the two draws prior. The eight-time champions are looking to pick up their league form and bounce back from a 2-0 defeat to Bragantino last time out. That halted their momentum of seven points from three league matches prior. Despite their indifferent overall form, Santos have managed to stay unbeaten at home in 14 competitive matches while winning and drawing seven games each.

Internacional are only a point behind Santos and are coming off a defeat in the Cup competition themselves. Unlike their hosts though, that halted a two-game winning run. One of those wins came in the league competition when they defeated Bahia 2-0 in their last league match. Interestingly, that result halted a four-game losing run for the visitors in this competition. Three of those defeats have come by a 2-0 scoreline, so goals have remained a tough proportion for them. In fact, with only seven goals so far in the campaign they have the joint-lowest total on that count. It gets worse on the road with Internacional losing their last three away league games. These matches have combined for just one goal for the visitors, clearly underlining where the improvements must come from.
