Match Analysis
RB Bragantino host Vasco DA Gama at Estadio Cicero de Souza Marques in Serie A, Regular Season - 36. Kick-off is scheduled for Sunday 22 November 2026 at 22:30 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Serie A games this season, RB Bragantino have gone 3W 3D 4L from 10 outings — a 1.20 PPG return. Last five: W D L W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.50 goals per game, with 1.40 conceded. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
RB Bragantino's home record at Estadio Cicero de Souza Marques: 6W 2D 2L from 10 Serie A appearances (2.00 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.80 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. Their home PPG of 2.00 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.20 — RB Bragantino are significantly better at Estadio Cicero de Souza Marques than their overall form suggests.
Vasco DA Gama — All Games: 5W 1D 4L from 10 Serie A fixtures this season — 1.60 PPG. Last five: W D L W L. They are scoring at 1.70 per game and conceding 1.50. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
When travelling in Serie A this season, Vasco DA Gama have posted 2W 2D 6L from 10 away outings — 0.80 PPG. Away from home they average 0.80 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 0.80 is notably below their overall 1.60 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — RB Bragantino at 1.20 PPG versus Vasco DA Gama's 1.60. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
Head to Head
There is little to separate the sides historically. From 7 previous meetings, RB Bragantino have won 3, Vasco DA Gama 2, with 2 draws — a balanced ledger that offers no obvious directional steer on its own.
The 7 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 2.9 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 24 May 2026, ended 3–0 with RB Bragantino winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 2.9 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
In-Play Data
RB Bragantino trading profile (70 games, 34 at home): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 95% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 58% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 56% of games (home games).
Vasco DA Gama trading profile (70 games, 34 at away): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 84% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 53% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 53% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (away games); they fail to score in 34% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — RB Bragantino 53% versus Vasco DA Gama 54%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (RB Bragantino 49% | Vasco DA Gama 57%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects RB Bragantino 1.66 xG and Vasco DA Gama 0.99 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: RB Bragantino attack 1.152 / defence 0.982 | Vasco DA Gama attack 0.902 / defence 0.978. League average goals — home 1.473 / away 1.120. Data: 72 RB Bragantino games / 70 Vasco DA Gama games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: RB Bragantino 51% | Draw 28% | Vasco DA Gama 21%. Fair-value odds: RB Bragantino 1.96 | Draw 3.57 | Vasco DA Gama 4.76. RB Bragantino hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (28%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 49% | BTTS probability 53% | Total xG 2.65. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 49%/51% — the total xG of 2.65 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 53% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
Poisson rates RB Bragantino as the most likely outcome at 51% — moderate model lean. With a 28% draw probability, Draw No Bet on RB Bragantino offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.65 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 49% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence — though H2H averaging only 2.9 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 53% on Yes. Form rates are neutral: RB Bragantino 50% | Vasco DA Gama 50%.
