Both sides have struggled in front of goal this season, with the hosts scoring nine goals in eight games and Cuiaba scoring just six goals (the second-worst attacking record in the league).

While the Belo Horizonte-based side have a lengthy injury list at the moment, they performed well against Corinthians last time around and we back them to emerge victorious in this match.
