Betting tips Internacional vs Coritiba

The hosts enter this fixture having endured something of a frustrating campaign so far, as evidenced in their bad-tempered 3:2 home loss against Botafogo last weekend despite having led 2:0 in the opening 14 minutes. 

While that loss was Internacional´s first defeat in 11 league outings, the Porto Alegre-based side have struggled for wins having remarkably drawn 5 successive league fixtures in the month of May.

More recently, Internacional had picked up some form, winning 3 and drawing 1 of their previous 4 prior to that surprise loss against Botafogo but they should be confident of returning to winning form here against a Coritiba side struggling badly, particularly on their travels, in recent weeks.

Indeed, the visitors arrive in Porto Alegre having won just 1 of their last 7 league matches and none of their last 5. On the road, Coritiba have failed to win any of their last 10 away league matches with 7 defeats suffered during that run. Coritiba also leaked 2 goals or more in 8 of those 10 away matches.

Still, the visitors do tend to score on their travels, bagging at least 1 goal in 8 of their last 10 away matches while Internacional have seen BTTS in 5 of their last 6 home matches suggesting goals should be on the cards.

Internacional certainly boasts a strong h2h record in this fixture, losing just 1 of their last 11 meetings since 2012. Internacional have won 5 and drawn 3 of their last 8 matches against the visitors and another home win looks to be the order of the day here.

With Coritiba leaking 2 goals or more in 8 of their last 9 on the road, and with the home side scoring 2 goals or more in 5 of their last 6 matches at the Estádio José Pinheiro Borda, el Clube do Povo should score at least a couple in what should prove a decent contest in Porto Alegre.

Ultimately though, the value pick could be in the BTTS selection with the hosts struggling for clean sheets and the visitors usually capable of scoring at least once.

Final score 2:1
