Criciúma are the shortest price to win this Série B clash according to the bookies, with the favourites given a 60% probability due to their -147 betting odds. At +410, Vila Nova are regarded as having a lower probability of winning.

Stake is split between -0.5 and -1.0 when betting Criciúma -0.75 at -115 on the Asian Handicap. Beating Vila Nova by 2+ goals sees a full payout. Winning by one goal means a return on the former and a push on the latter.
