⭐ Editorial Prediction
Novorizontino come into this fixture as clear favourites, which is hardly surprising given the current league standings. However, head-to-head clashes with Ponte Preta have often proved tricky for the visitors, especially away from home. The stats back this up: in their last eight visits to Ponte Preta, Novorizontino have never scored more than once. So, despite their superior quality and current form, the visitors may find it tough to rack up the goals here. In this context, backing Novorizontino’s individual total under 1.5 goals looks like a well-founded prediction.
