Betting suggestion:

Criciúma are coming off a defeat and are under pressure, but they usually adopt a dominant approach at the Heriberto Hülse, and that’s unlikely to change this time. On the other hand, Athletico PR have been picking up points even away from home, suggesting this could be an open contest with chances for both sides. Therefore, betting on both teams to score becomes an appealing scenario for this clash.
