- Venue: Estádio Rei Pelé
Two Brazilian second-tier sides separated by just one point after five games meet on Tuesday night when Clube de Regatas Brasil host Cuiaba.
CRB began their league campaign with three successive wins, beating Chapecoense, Athletic and Volta Redonda by a combined score of 4-1, but they have not sustained that form. Eduardo Barroca's side suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Athletico PR on Matchday 4 and failed to beat Paysandu in their last league encounter despite playing with a man advantage for over half an hour.
Cuiaba meanwhile are still unbeaten, with three wins and two draws from their five Serie B games to date. The visitors' most recent encounter came last weekend when they hosted Feroviaria. Ferreira's side were looking to get back to winning ways after picking up just one point from their previous encounter - against Atletico Goianiense. They secured all three points and a clean sheet, but the Golden Dourado Fish will be worried by the fact that they lost 4-1 on their last visit to the Estadio Rei Pele.
CRB vs Cuiaba Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
While CRB's two clean sheets this season have come at this venue, the Red-cowled Cardinals have struggled defensively in their last three outings, conceding at least one goal in each, and I fancy that run to continue on Tuesday.
Cuiaba have also failed to keep a clean sheet on three occasions this season, with two of those games resulting in three or more goals.
CRB and Cuiaba also have a history of producing high scoring games, with 14 goals scored in their last three encounters alone.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- CRB vs Cuiaba prediction: 2-2

Cuiaba team news
Cuiaba didn't suffer any injuries in last weekend's loss to Ferroviaria, so don't be surprised if head coach Guto Ferreira sticks with the same XI.
Alan Empereur - who scored his first goal of the season in that game - is expected to return to the heart of the defence alongside Nathan, while Derik Lacerda will lead the line.
