Football Bet of the Day: Battle royale in Brazil

Atletico GO v Paysandu
Wednesday 01:30

Last night's game in Iceland started with a bang, as Robert Crawford gave Hafnarfjordur the lead in the very first minute. But that was as good as it got - for us and for everyone else. Nothing else happened for the next hour and a half, and it finished 1-0 to the hosts.

Today's bet comes from Brazil, where Atletico GO entertain Paysandu in one of tonight's Serie B matches. Claudio Tencati's hosts sit eighth in the 20-team league, with visiting Paysandu three points and three places behind them. Both sides, however, have been leaking goals recently and that's why we like the near-evens price on both teams to score in this one.

The Dragons have conceded more goals at home (16 in nine games) than anyone else in Serie B. At the other end, their record of scoring 18 times in nine home games is also unmatched. They've scored at least twice in 7/9 at Estadio Olimpico Pedro Ludovico and start as odds-on favourites to win this one.

Indeed, Paysandu haven't won on the road since April (D4-L4 since then) or kept a clean sheet, but the Wolves do have a decent scoring record. They've struck in 8/9 away from home this season. Up against a porous home defence tonight, we fancy they can grab a goal and help land our BTTS bet.
