Football Bet of the Day: Back BTTS in Brazil

Vasco Da Gama v Fortaleza EC
Thursday 22:00

In Norway yesterday, Sandnes Ulf roared into a 3-0 first-half lead and still had time to miss a penalty before the break. They eventually won 4-1 to land our goals bet.

We're looking to land another goals bet in Brazil tonight. Vasco Da Gama are 17th in the Serie A table. They welcome 13th-placed Fortaleza to Estadio Sao Januario and we like the odds-against price on both teams to score.

BTTS has been the right bet in four of Vasco's most recent five home games. Despite their lowly position, the hosts have scored themselves in 7/9 appearances on home turf - only firmly top-half outfits Gremio and Palmeiras have stopped them.

Fortaleza have won only one of their first 10 away games of the campaign, but they have scored on seven of their last nine road trips. They will fancy their chances of netting against a home defence that has failed to keep a clean sheet in any of its last five home games. At the other end, the visitors have conceded in 9/10 on the road. With two leaky defences going head to head this evening, we're backing BTTS.
