- Competition: Serie A
- Date: Wednesday, 16th April, 2025
- Kickoff: 23:00 UK / 00:00 CEST
- Venue: Estádio José Maria de Campos Maia (Mirassol)
Last year, Mirassol secured promotion to Serie A after finishing second in Serie B. After that, they had a terrible state league run and continued with poor performances in Serie A! The team from Sao Paulo opened the season with two draws and a loss in the first three rounds and haven't had too challenging a schedule. Their goal has to be only to survive this year, but judging from the first three games of the season, that will not be an easy task.
Gremio had a difficult season behind them as they finished 14th. That was a truly terrible result, considering they finished second the year before. Before the start of Serie A, the team from Porto Alegre did well in their state league, reaching the finals, which they eventually lost to Internacional. Meanwhile, in Serie A, they haven't had the start they wanted, as they won one and lost two and sit in 13th place. On the positive side, Gremio did well in the Copa Sudamericana, winning both games at the start of the competition.
Mirassol vs Gremio pick: Under 2.5 goals
Mirassol are playing poorly. If we combine the state league games, they haven't won in the last ten matches! During that time, they scored zero or one goal in nine out of those ten matches. So, we definitely do not think they can offer a good offensive display.
Gremio have been inconsistent at the start of the season, and we are unsure what we can expect from them. However, we can see they have played low-scoring games lately, as their last three matches finished with fewer than three goals.
Additionally, these teams were under 2.5 goals in two of three Serie A games - 67% Considering all the above, an under 2.5 goals seems like the best bet for this Serie A tie.

Mirassol team news
Recently, coach Rafael Guanes spoke about the team. He noted their efficiency is not on the desired level, and that is the key to everything. " I can say that we were efficient in terms of the number of chances created and the greater number of goals scored while also giving up very little in terms of defense," the coach added.
David Braz, Leo Gamalho, Luiz Otavio, Matheus Sales, Negueba, Rafa Silva, and Ze Vitor, who missed the previous games with injuries, should remain sidelined.

Gremio team news
In the previous game against Flamengo, central defender Rodrigo Ely suffered an injury and had to leave the field after only 27 minutes. With him out, Jemerson should get the opportunity to start as a replacement.
Also, Walter Kannemann and Cristian Olivera, who missed the previous games with injuries, should remain sidelined.
