CRB vs Ituano Prediction & Preview
Preview
The Brazil Serie B is set to witness an intriguing encounter on Saturday, 20th July, as CRB hosts Ituano at Estádio Rei Pelé. The 16th round of the competition promises to be a thrilling contest between two teams with contrasting forms.
CRB, currently sitting 13th in the league table with 19 points, will look to capitalize on their home advantage against the struggling Ituano, who are 19th with 11 points. The hosts have been in decent form, winning two and drawing two of their last five matches, while Ituano has managed just one win and two draws in the same period.
In their last match, CRB thrashed Botafogo SP 4-1 at home, while Ituano suffered a 2-0 defeat against Santos away. The teams' recent head-to-head record is evenly poised, with three draws and one Ituano win in their last four meetings. Their most recent encounter ended in a goalless draw on 14th October 2023.
CRB's home form has been impressive, scoring an average of 2 goals per game and conceding just 0.75. On the other hand, Ituano has struggled on the road, scoring 1.67 goals per game while leaking three goals on average.
Bet
Considering the teams' recent forms, head-to-head record, and goal-scoring statistics, I recommend a Home Win for CRB at odds of 1.44. The hosts have been solid at home, and Ituano's away form suggests they might struggle to contain CRB's attacking threats. With CRB scoring an average of 1.6 goals per game overall, and 2 goals per game at home, a home win looks like the most likely outcome.
