NextGOAL tip: São Paulo -0.25 · 1 stars
São Paulo are in 13th place but trail 7th-placed Bragantino by 8 points, despite both having played 23 matches. The gap does not come from attack (27 goals scored versus 28) but from a defense that has conceded 27 goals, the same number as they have scored, while Bragantino have conceded only 23. In their last 5 matches, São Paulo have won only once (3-1) and lost their last 2, but in the last 2 home meetings in the league, São Paulo beat Bragantino 2-1 on both occasions. The first thing to watch after kickoff is the home side's defense, which has conceded a lot of goals in the second half, especially between the 46th and 60th minutes, accounting for 28% of all goals conceded. If they survive the first 15 minutes of the second half, the chances of the game going São Paulo's way will increase.
