BEST ODDS
Our pick: Bookmakers offer average 1.37 (implied 72.9%) for Santos to Win. Our experts calculate a 75.4% probability (an expert ratio of 1.33). We chose this bet because our experts rate it more likely than the bookmaker price implies (75.4% vs 72.9%), driven by Santos's stronger form and superior underlying numbers. That edge makes it our most confident selection for this match.

Match Preview

The model favours Santos to win against Chapecoense-sc, projecting a scoreline of 2-1. Santos currently sits in 15th place in the Serie A standings, having accumulated 21 points from 18 matches. Their recent form shows an improvement with three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five matches. Key stats indicate they have scored 26 goals while conceding 29, resulting in a goal difference of -3, which reflects a competitive edge over their upcoming opponents. On the other hand, Chapecoense-sc is languishing at the bottom of the table in 20th place, with only 9 points from 17 matches and a disappointing record of one win, six draws, and ten losses. Their goal-scoring has been a significant issue, managing just 17 goals while conceding 33, leading to a goal difference of -16. Although they have secured two wins in their last five matches, their overall season performance has been lacking, making it difficult to expect a strong showing against Santos. According to the model output, Santos has a win probability of approximately 60%, while the projected score remains at 2-1. One notable caveat is that if Chapecoense-sc can find a way to exploit Santos' defensive weaknesses, they could potentially disrupt the predicted outcome. The full method of this analysis is detailed in the "How We Reached This Prediction" section, as conducted by The Daily Punt Analysis Team, which uses an in-house model that evaluates expected goals and actual results throughout the season.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team

Data-driven football predictions and betting tips

This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.

Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
