Gremio will continue their fight to stay in the Brazilian top flight when they play host to Cruizeiro on Wednesday night.
The hosts have gone from a side challenging for the Serie A title to a side fighting relegation just within a year. Renato Gaúcho’s side sit in the bottom three with eleven points from 13 games and boast just one win from their last eleven games across all competitions. However, Tricolor dos Pampas will take heart from the fact that their last win came at Estádio Centenário.
Cruzeiro meanwhile have improved massively compared to last season. The visitors are within touching distance of the top six and have their home form to thank for that. Fernando Seabra’s side currently have the second-best record of any Serie A team at home this season, but we have seen completely the opposite away from home with the team boasting just one win in eight away encounters.
Gremio vs Cruzeiro Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
We saw seven goals in total in the last two league games of Gremio but that is not mostly the case at Estádio Centenário. Over the course of the last six home games of Renato Gaúcho’s men, bets on under 2.5 goals were won in five matches.
Cruzeiro have not also had plenty of joy when it comes to scoring goals away from home lately. The visitors failed to find the back of the net in three of their last five league games on the road and scored exactly one goal in the other two fixtures.
Most of the recent meetings between Gremio and Cruzeiro were not also very productive. Three of the last four h2h eetings ended with two goals or fewer and I fancy a similar scoreline this week.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Gremio vs Cruzeiro prediction: 1-1

Cruzeiro team news
After his side’s display in the 3-0 win over Corithians last time out, Cruzeiro boss Fernando Seabra is expected to resist the temptation to make alterations to his XI.
With his goal in that game, Matheus Pereira has now scored five goals for the visitors this season and should lead the line, while Álvaro Barreal will be the man to watch in the middle of the park.
Juan Dinenno, Rafa Silva and Matheus Davó are set to miss the trip to Estádio Centenário due to injuries, while Cássio and José Cifuentes are on internation duty with their respective nations.
