Atletico Goianiense take on the visitors Sport Recife in the round 17 match of Brazilian Serie B. The match will be played on Saturday, June 15th at Estádio Antonio Accioly (Goiânia).
Atletico Goianiense have been a big disappointment in the current season of the Brazilian Serie B. In their sixteen matches, they have won five, drawn eight, and lost three. Currently, they have 23 points and are positioned in the middle of the league table, specifically in the eleventh place. Atletico is currently on a five-match unbeaten streak, during which they secured a 1-0 victory against Ponte Preta and drew with teams such as Ituano (1-1), ABC (1-1), Vila Nova (1-1), and Novorizontino (2-2). At home, the team has performed solidly, with only one defeat, three draws, and four victories, scoring nine goals and conceding eight.

Sport Recife are performing very well in the tournament and currently holds the second position in the Brazilian Serie B standings. After sixteen matches, they have accumulated 32 points, just one point behind the league leader, Criciuma. Recently, there has been a decline in Sport Recife's results. While they convincingly defeated Juventude (3-0) and Ceara (2-0) at the end of June and beginning of July, as well as drew with Chapecoense (1-1), they have lost to CRB (0-2) and shared points with Mirassol (0-0) in their last two matches. Sport Recife hasn't performed well in away matches, with only one victory, four draws, and two defeats in seven games. Furthermore, they have a negative goal difference in these matches, having scored five goals and conceded seven.
Based on the league table, Sport Recife is undoubtedly the favorite in this match. However, according to the bookmakers' odds, Atletico Goianiense have a slight advantage. I'm not going to predict which team will be stronger in this duel, but I suggest considering a bet on both teams to score, as it offers an attractive coefficient. Sport Recife is currently the most prolific team in the championship with 25 goals, while Atletico Goianiense is among the teams that concede the most goals (24). Moreover, Atletico has consistently seen both teams scoring in four out of their last five matches, indicating a certain pattern. Interestingly, Sport Recife has also shown a similar trend in their away matches, having exchanged goals with their opponents on three occasions in the past month and a half. In my opinion, it makes sense to take a risk and place a bet on both teams to score in this contest.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
