SAO Paulo v Juventude Betting Tips [26 June 2022]

Sao Paulo are coming from a win over league leaders Palmeiras in the Brazilian Cup and will be targeting the same in the Serie A when they play host to Juventude. Heading into this game, the home team is placed ninth with 18 points while Juventude are bottom of the standings with 10 points. Sao Paulo will want to build on their win over Palmeiras in the league after losing in the last two league games. The biggest concern for Sao Paulo has been getting few goals and they will look at this game as a chance to solve that, given Juventude’s form. Sao Paulo haven’t managed more than a goal in their last five matches though they have two clean sheets in that run, and have conceded twice in one of the two games. They have one clean sheet only in their last 10 league matches.

Four straight losses have seen Juventude drop to the bottom of the league standings. Their most recent outing ended in a 3-1 defeat to Atletico GO, which was also the fourth straight game in which they conceded two or more goals. Even in their poor run, Juventude have managed to score in four of their last five matches. Going into this game, they have four straight losses and just one clean sheet in five. This is a run they will want to change but with just one win in six away league games, things don’t look too promising for the visitors. They have no clean sheet in any of their last six away league matches.

Juventude have a poor run going into this game and this doesn’t promise to be an easy outing, especially as they haven’t done well away from home. They’ve had issues defensively and the same will be carried to this game. Back Sao Paulo to win.
