- Competition: Serie B
- Date: Saturday, 12th July 2024
- Kickoff: 23:00 UK/00:00 CEST
- Venue: Estádio Moisés Lucarelli (Campinas)
Ponte Preta are playing according to the preseason expectations this season, as they are occupying a mid-table position after 14 league rounds. Ponte Preta had some tough runs during April and May, but they are unbeaten in the previous three rounds. In the last match, Ponte Preta played 0-0 on the road against Brusque. Nelson Baptista's team came into the game in Itajai as underdogs but played well, so they had a solid chance to pull out all three points. However, another good performance will help Ponte Preta add more confidence ahead of the game against Mirassol.
Mirassol has been exceeding expectations this season by consistently challenging the top teams in the division. Initially pegged as a mid-table contender, they find themselves just three points behind league leaders Santos. Although Mozart's team struggled through a recent stretch with four winless games, they bounced back with a hard-fought 1-0 victory at home against CRB in their last outing. Now, Mozart's team will travel to Campinas, where they should have a good chance to get more points.
Ponte Preta vs Mirassol pick: Under 2.5 goals
Ponte Preta have a solid defense with six allowed goals in the last six matches. Also, four of those six games went under 2.5 goals. On the other hand, each of the previous six Mirassol matches were with two or fewer goals. Under 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.
