Football Bet of the Day: No carnival in Brazil tonight

Avai v Coritiba
Friday 01:00

Atletico PR have some reputational damage to repair after last night's 2-0 defeat at home to Cruzeiro. We've got a similar repair job on our hands after backing the hosts, but are hoping to get it done while staying in Brazil.

One of tonight's Campeonato games pitches 17th-placed Avai at home to 15th-placed Coritiba. Neither side has set Serie A alight so far this season and we're not expecting sparks to fly in this one.

Claudinei Oliveira's Avai have scored just twice in five appearances at Ressacada so far this term. At the other end, they've notched three clean sheets and, in total, three of those five games have ended with Under 1.5 Goals.

Pachequinho's Coritiba, who have scored only three times in five away games this season, have a longer history of very low scoring. Last season, visiting teams that finished alongside them in the bottom half, 6/9 matches finished with no more than one goal.

We might not enjoy watching it, but we do like the odds-against price on Under 1.5 Goals for this one.
