Best Odds and Top Predictions for Goias vs Cuiaba
Two teams that are destined to fight against relegation this season are meeting in Goias.
Contents
Both Teams to Score – No
It seems this is the logical bet for this occasion. Both teams in this Goias vs Cuiaba prediction have struggled with goalscoring form in the eight games they played this season. Their h2h record will give even more credence to this pick with four out of the last five times these teams have played against each other ending without at least one team getting on the scoresheet. Their current form speaks a similar story. Goias had two out of the last five outings with negative on the BTTS side while Cuiaba had three of those games from the same span of matches.
Under 2.5 Goals
A similar sentiment applies to the second prediction regarding Goias vs Cuiaba duel. Historically, these teams have met each other nine times dating to their first match in 2017. Only three matches crossed the 2.5 goals mark. Looking at their running form in the eight games they featured thus far this season, both are at 50 percent going four games in either way. Cuiaba does have three straight ‘under' matches under its belt. Considering that both teams in this tie have forwards who are failing to score goals, it is reasonable to belief that this game is likely to be a low-scoring encounter with few opportunities on both sides of the field.

Team Information, Preview, and Goias vs Cuiaba Lineups
Goias
The home team usually struggles to avoid relegation, they finished last season 13th and something similar might happen this time around. The squad is deficient in the forward position which is transparent in the way they are unable to score goals regularly. Everton Morelli, Santos Silva, and Jhonny Lucas are injured.
Provisional lineup: Tadeu, Bruno Santos, Lucas Halter, Bruno Melo, Sander, Maguinho, Willian Oliveira, Diego, Alesson, Palacios, Matheus Peixoto.
Cuiaba
When most of your goals are coming from the defensive part of the team, you know there is a problem with the team. Fortunately, for Cuiaba, they are playing against a team that is equally struggling to score goals, so from that aspect, this will be an interesting encounter. Filipe Augusto, Joao Maranini, and Uendel are missing the match with injuries.
Provisional lineup: Walter, Rikelme, Alan Empereur, Marlion, Matheus Alexandre, Ronald, Raniels, Fernando Sobral, Wellington Silva, Deyverson, Jonathan Cafu.
Player to Watch: Matheus Peixoto
To say that Goias forwards have struggled in the first eight matches of the season would be a huge understatement. Matheus Peixoto should be getting on the scoresheet more often than he currently provides scoring only one goal with a single assist as well on his record. He is not the only one struggling, and it is never a positive thing when defenders are scoring goals on the same level as the team's attackers.
However, the 27-year-old striker is dedicated to making sure his form gets back on track as Goias will need his goals to have a good season. He started every game he was available to play, eight of them in total and it is obvious that he has the team's trust. Peixoto went through a lot of clubs, most in Brazil, but with Goias, he is yet to prove his true worth by clearing the goalscoring charts.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
