3.15Tip and bets
Coritiba has the last chance to seriously lay claim to a place in the top four – the gap has already reached a critical point and only a series of successful matches will allow them to fight for promotion in the final stretch. It is obvious that the hosts will take risks and play aggressively in attack, but at the same time, Avai will clearly come for a win, and it makes sense to count on goals scored.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Betting Tip - total over two goals . This bet is offered with odds of 2.05
Bet on the outcome
Coritiba has improved in recent matches and has won two victories over very difficult opponents – the hosts will certainly try to develop the series. Avai is in good shape, but is extremely vulnerable in away matches, and the Lions have lost their last five matches at Kuto Pereira, so it makes sense to give preference to the hosts.
Bet - Coritiba win. This bet is offered for 1.99
Bet on corners
