Vila Nova vs Ponte Preta

6–0

🧠 Vila Nova hold a clear edge through home advantage, league form and Ponte Preta’s defensive weakness, but the likeliest script is a controlled home win in which Ponte retain a meaningful chance of scoring.

19 Aug 2026, 23:30

Cuiaba vs Operario-PR

1–0

🧠 A low-scoring draw is the strongest reading: Operário arrive higher in the table, but Cuiabá’s home defence narrows the visitors’ margin.

Botafogo SP vs Criciuma

1–1

🧠 Criciúma are the more consistent side in the table and defensively, but the four reported suspensions flatten their advantage; a low-scoring draw is the most balanced reading.

20 Aug 2026, 22:30

Athletic Club vs CRB

0–2

🧠 Athletic hold a slight edge through home advantage and the more stable defence, but CRB’s more productive attack should keep this tight, with little room for complacency.

20 Aug 2026, 23:30

Novorizontino vs America Mineiro

3–0

🧠 Novorizontino have the structural edge, home advantage and enough attacking volume to control a short-handed América-MG; the main read is a home win in a match featuring no more than two goals.
