Avai vs Goias Soccer Prediction

Avaí fights for access he is currently 2 nd with 22 points with a very balanced team (that scores many goals (22) and suffers few (12).

Although he is in a comfortable position at the table, he can not let success go to the top as Figueirense, the first team outside the G-4, has 1 point less.

The fight of the Goias for now is against relegation. With 15 points won in 13 matches, he is in 16th position, being the first team outside the Z-4.

Although it has an efficient attack, the defensive system leaves much to be desired, having already suffered 21 goals although they have shaken the opponent’s networks 17 times. It will be a very disputed game, where both teams will seek the victory.

Avaí of coach Geninho has as main characteristic the maintenance of possession of ball in order to control the game and to pierce the opposing defense. It was so for example in the last match – away defeat to the West.
Avaí controlled the game, had much more possession and finalizations, but could not make the goal. Geninho made a good reading of the match:

“He can not say that Avaí played poorly. I was talking to Roberto Cavalo (West coach) at the end of the game, he came to say hello to me, to congratulate him on the volume of play and the team that came to play against him.

He said, “Look, I found a ball, then I ran after your team all the time.” We had countless chances and we did not conclude. We had at least six or seven real chances of goals, out the volume, off the wrong passes on the last ball.

We had ball missing one foot to complete, one leaving to another, in short, we had a series of bids we could have set. This is a game you lose to yourself. The opponent scored the goal and then nothing else. ”

I believe that Avaí will play similar match against Goiás, with a lot of game and more number of finalizations.

Coach Ney Franco’s Goiás should go with a cautious stance, focusing on defending himself and getting at least the draw in Florianopolis.

The Goian team will not have the presence of striker striker Marcão championship – expelled in the last game. I did not see much ability to play in that team’s speed and have not yet made a convincing match in this series B.

Prediction Avai vs Goias:

Avaí is the best team, he is able to apply his game model even in the games in which he is defeated and the Goiás does not come good stage and even more without his best player. I believe that with a great amount of game Avaí can pierce the strong defense system of Goiás and win.
