It's the first game of the new campaign for São Paulo and Athletico PR. The leaf is blank, the opportunities infinite.

The hosts Paulo saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Copa Sudamericana. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Ayacucho.

São Paulo form and stats

It's the first season at a new level for São Paulo as they were promoted from Paulista A1 last season. Happy days that were secured through 7 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses from twelve games. The team scored 4 goals at home last season and conceded 2. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from São Paulo's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played seven games, won three matches, drawn three and lost one.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Paulo as they have a new game in only four days, a Copa Sudamericana match thankfully also at home. Everton are visiting.

Head 2 Head
