Sao Paulo vs Tigre Prediction: Can Tigre finally score against Sao Paulo?

Both teams have already qualified for the next round, so in this match, they will try to win without risking any major injuries or unnecessary cards. But when Brazilian and Argentinian teams play the atmosphere is always tense and things can easily go out of control. Sao Paolo are 1st in Group D, without a defeat or conceded goal. Tigre will want to win after the defeat in the first match between these teams in Argentina.

Sao Paulo are one of the best teams in this competition this season. They showed it in the group stage where in 5 matches they have 4 wins and a draw. They will want to finish the group stage without a defeat and concede a goal, but the manager will have to mix up the squad as they have several players out due to an injury, which may affect the strenght in the defensive line

Tigre entered into the knockout round for the first time in 10 years, which is a huge step for them. The new manager Juan Sara will certainly want to impress the fans with a positive result in a match like this. Tigres are 2nd in the table with 10 points, 3 wins, a draw, and a defeat. As visitors they have 2 wins, 5 goals scored, and only 1 conceded, however, they are struggling recently in away matches. They will also miss several players, but it shouldn’t affect the tactics of the new manager a lot.

Since it’s clear that both teams are moving forward to the next phase, Sao Paulo and Tigre will play a match for the fans and pride. Sao Paulo are always a favorite when playing at home, as it is this time. However, Tigre will wait for a chance to score a goal against Brazilian team who still doesn’t know how it is to concede a goal in this season group stage. I think it’s best if we bet on goals instead of picking a winner, and Sao Paolo to score over 1.5 goals seems like the best pick for this match.
