Figueirense vs Hercilio Luz tips and predictions

Neither side holding solid claims

Any eventuality could happen here. The draw should be considered. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away with.

Both of these sides have looked strong in defence. Having created something of a fortress at home, Figueirense have conceded at an average of just 0.5 goals per game over their last 6 matches, while Hercilio Luz haven't let in a single goal throughout their most recent 3 games.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, 5 of the last 6 have been draws.

Don't be disappointed if one of these sides tries to lock this game down as the match is likely to be tight. The No BTTS bet would be sensible.

Figueirense have drawn 9 of their last 18 matches on their own soil, most recently when they drew 2-2 with Chapecoense-SC at home last week. Hercilio Luz have drawn 11 of their last 18 matches. They drew with Chapecoense-SC last Monday and while any draw is predicted, a scoreline of 0-0 shouldn't be dismissed here. It's not a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to keep at arm's length. The draw is the play after what looks set to be a tightly contested match-up.
