Sao Paulo vs Cuiaba Prediction and Betting Tips | June 19th 2024

The action continues in round 10 of the Brasileiro Serie A as Sao Paulo and Cuiaba square off at the Estádio do Morumbi on Wednesday. Having failed to win the last three meetings between the two sides, Luis Zubeldia’s men will be looking to get one over the visitors and pick up a fourth home win on the bounce.

Sao Paulo were involved in a share of the spoils for a second consecutive game as they played out a 2-2 draw with 10-man Corinthians on Sunday.

This followed a disappointing goalless draw against Internacional at the Estádio Heriberto Hülse on June 14 which saw their three-game winning streak come to an end.

Sao Paulo are now unbeaten in 13 straight matches across all competitions and sit fifth in the Serie A table with 15 points from nine games.

Cuiaba, on the other hand, picked up their first Serie A home win of the season in style as they thrashed nine-man Fortaleza 5-0 last time out.

Before that, Petit’s men had failed to win their four home games in the new league campaign, losing three consecutive matches before playing out a goalless draw with Vitoria on June 6.

With seven points from nine matches, Cuiaba are 14th in the Serie A table, level on points with Vasco da Gama and Corinthians.
