Gama and Santos played four head-to-heads in their history. Three of this matches ended with draws and one time Gama were victorious. We can expect the host to offer a battle at own turf to notable visitors, who might rest some of the key players. Of course, the hosts have small chances for success but they are able to avoid thrashing defeat in the home leg.
Prediction for the match: Gama to win with +1.5 Asian Handicap.
