Goias and Criciuma can help lift a nation tonight

"The Emerald Green have both scored and conceded in each of their last six appearances on home turf"

Back Both Teams to Score @ 2.1011/10 in Goias v Criciuma

Goias are going for goals in Serie B tonight, says Tobias Gourlay

Goias v Criciuma
Saturday 00:30

Grindavik 1 KA Akureyri 2 gave us a winner in Iceland yesterday. Today we're hoping to ride out Friday the 13th in South America.

One of tonight's four Brazilian Serie B matches pits 11th-placed Goias at home to 18th-placed Criciuma. The hosts are odds-on favourites to bag all three points, but we like the odds-against price on the visitors taking at least a goal away from Serrinha Stadium.

The Emerald Green have both scored and conceded in each of their last six appearances on home turf. The most recent four of those matches have all come against teams now below them in the table.

Going back into last season, visiting Criciuma have found the back of the net in 7/10 away games. Since Goias returned to this level a couple of seasons, both teams have scored in 3/4 head-to-heads, with each of Goias's home games finishing 1-1. We're backing both teams to score again tonight.
