The first 14 Serie B rounds were unexpectedly interesting, so the first five teams are separated by only two points. Among those five are both our teams, Avai and Vila Nova. Both teams probably didn't anticipate such a great few months in 2024 as they belong more to the mid-table, but now they will both have a chance to improve their ranking with another victory.
Vila Nova FC was founded eighty years ago, and they didn't have too many seasons in the best Brazilian League, Serie A. However, this year, they are playing surprisingly well, so Luizinho Lopes' team is only one point behind the league leader, Santos. Vila Nova FC are in tremendous form, with ten points from the last four matches. In the previous game, they won 2-1 on the road against Amazonas. The home side finished the match with ten more shots on the goal than Vila Nova FC, but Lopes' team picked up all three points.
Avai's last season in Serie A was in 2022. This year, Gilmar Pozzo's team are playing well, so fans are hoping their team can return to the best Brazilian division. Avai were on the run of 11 games without a defeat until the last Serie B round when Pozzo's team lost 1-0 at home against Novorizontino. The teams were pretty even, but the guests did just enough to pick up all three points.
Vila Nova FC vs Avai pick: Under 2.5 goals
Vila Nova FC allowed only three goals in the last five matches. Four of those five games went under 2.5 goals. On the other hand, Avai went under 2.5 goals in seven of the previous eight games. Under 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.
