Sao Paulo vs Cruzeiro Match Prediction – May 20, 2024

Despite their rich history and passionate fanbase, Sao Paulo has been underwhelming recently, failing to secure a win in four of their last five outings, including two losses. They suffered defeats against Goias (0-2) and a heavy setback (0-5) against Palmeiras. Their latest match ended in a 1-1 draw against Athletico-PR. However, their last victory came in a 3-0 home triumph over Gremio, which although promising, dates back a month. The advantage for Sao Paulo in the upcoming match is their home ground at Estádio do Morumbi, where they have maintained an unbeaten streak in their last four matches. The last time Sao Paulo tasted defeat at home was two months ago.

On the flip side, Cruzeiro seems to be regaining confidence after a series of unstable performances. Following a defeat to Fluminense (0-1), they managed to secure back-to-back victories against Atletico-MG (1-0) and Bahia (3-0). Cruzeiro has also shown resilience in away games, remaining unbeaten in three of their last four on the road, including two victories. Historical data shows that Cruzeiro has been more successful in recent encounters against Sao Paulo, remaining undefeated in their last three matchups, with two wins and one draw. Interestingly, the last victory for Sao Paulo against Cruzeiro occurred five years ago, and the most recent visit to Sao Paulo ended in a 1-1 draw.

Match Goals Prediction: Sao Paulo vs Cruzeiro

Cruzeiro’s recent matches haven’t been high-scoring affairs, with 15 of their last 19 matches featuring less than three total goals. Additionally, their last three away games have seen no more than two goals. Given the history between these two teams, the upcoming clash is expected to be a tight contest with few goals.

Prediction: Sao Paulo 1 – 1 Cruzeiro

Recent Performance Comparison
