Mirassol have made a decent start to life in what is their first ever season in the Brazilian top flight as the upcoming hosts occupy 9th place having recently registered a 2-0 win away from home at 13th placed Sao Paulo which has lifted Rafael Guanaes’ side into one of the Copa Sudamericana spots.
The Serie A newcomers have suffered just two defeats within their opening 10 league matches which came against the likes of Cruzeiro and Bragantino, both of which were away from home.
Nevertheless, Mirassol have also collected a few impressive wins already this season in the shape of Gremio 4-1 and Corinthians 2-1 which were both recorded on home soil at their Estádio José Maria de Campos Maia where the hosts still remain unbeaten to date this term with two wins and two draws.
Sport Recife by contrast have had to endure a tough and difficult looking start to this new Serie A campaign as the visitors sit bottom of the table with just three points to their name thanks to points picked up in three draws.
Points picked up in stalemates with Sao Paulo, Fortaleza and Internacional respectively however have been overshadowed by slipping to no fewer than seven defeats within their opening 10 league games to date.
Four of these seven losses have been incurred on their travels as Sport Recife have been handed early season losses on the road at Vasco da Gama, Corinthians, Fluminense and Ceara, while the bigger picture shows the visitors have managed to capture just two wins in their last 16 outings on the road, including 12 defeats.
The Betting Verdict
Mirassol have made a solid start to this season especially at home and the hosts look a decent bet with the handicap here.
The Pick :
Mirassol 2-1 Sport Recife
