On Sunday night, RB Bragantino hosts Internacional at the Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid in the Brazilian Serie A.
The home team saw a seven-game unbeaten run come to an end last time out, as they suffered a 2-0 defeat at Botafogo. The game was yet another low-scoring encounter for Bragantino, as four of their previous five matches have now produced under 2.5 goals.

The recent run of form has Bragantino in seventh place in the Serie A table, just a point outside the Copa Libertadores qualification spots.
Bragantino has been a difficult team to beat on home soil lately, as they are unbeaten in their previous six matches on home soil in the Brazilian top flight.
A goalless draw against Sao Paulo in their last home match means that Pedro Caixinha’s team has kept five straight clean sheets on home soil in Serie A.
The visitors are winless in their last three matches after a 0-0 draw against Palmeiras previous time out. The game saw Internacional fail to score for a third straight game in the Brazilian top flight.
Despite the recent unconvincing form, Internacional are still just three points adrift of the Copa Libertadores qualification spots.
Internacional’s lack of attacking potency of late has contributed to six of their last eight matches in the Brazilian top flight producing under 2.5 goals.
Eduardo Coudet’s team have recorded back-to-back goalless draws against Cruzeiro and Palmeiras on home soil, results which make them four league games unbeaten at home.
Internacional’s recent home games in the Brazilian top flight have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.
Forebet predicts that this encounter will be tight and that this game will produce a low-scoring draw.
