Brazil vs Uruguay Prediction and Betting Tips (20.11.2024)

Command Analysis

Brazil

Current form

Brazil failed the opening period of the qualifying tournament, but gradually gained momentum and is approaching the 12th round in fourth place in the table. The gap from Uruguay and Colombia, who are in second and third place, is only two points. A victory today, under certain circumstances, could even allow them to rise to second place. In the last round, the Brazilians were unable to win away to Venezuela (1:1). Undoubtedly, losing points in that match was not in the team plans, because the national teams of Ecuador and Paraguay are one point behind in the table.

Disqualifications and injuries

Alisson and Militao will be out today due to injury, while Wanderson will serve a suspension.

Interesting trends for betting

Uruguay

Current form

After 11 qualifying matches, the Uruguayan national team has 19 points and is in second place in the table. It will not be easy to catch up with the leading Argentina, as the gap is three points. At the same time, Colombia is behind, which is inferior only by additional indicators. In the last round, there was a battle with the Colombians. The opponents played a bright and tense match, where Uruguay snatched victory in the 101st minute thanks to a goal by Ugarte (3:2). It should be noted that Marcelo Bielsa charges are not very confident in away games in the qualifying tournament - only five points scored in five games.

Tip and bets

2.23Uruguay will not lose

In the last two face-to-face matches, Uruguay has not lost to the Brazilians. It cannot be said that Dorival Junior team is currently demonstrating a very convincing game and is capable of dealing with any opponent without problems. Very often, Brazilian footballers are prevented from fully expressing themselves on the field by unnecessary emotions. The Uruguayan squad is distinguished by its character and intransigence, after a difficult victory over Colombia, the guests will be extremely motivated to score points against the upcoming opponent, which, we think, they will succeed in doing.

Our prediction is Uruguay will not lose at odds of 2.23

1.6total under 2.5 goals

Bet on total

We do not expect more than two goals scored, considering, first of all, the style of play of the guests. Uruguay is traditionally reliable in defense; in the last ten matches with the participation of this team, more than two goals were scored only twice. In addition, in the two previous face-to-face matches, the bet on the total was under.

The second bet is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.60

Bet on the first half

Let pay attention to the fact that in four of the five previous matches of the Uruguayans, the exact score at the end of the first half was 0:0. It is unlikely that today the opponents will force the events on the field and take unjustified risks.

Prediction - draw in the first half with odds of 2.14
