Internacional vs Juventude Prediction: Inter to Win and Juventude Won't Score

Monday's pool includes two Brazileirao matches, one of which will be the meeting between Internacional and Juventude. After their elimination from the South American Cup, the Reds are entirely focused on the national championship, and, logically, they are the big favorites for the upcoming meeting.

After being eliminated from the South American Cup by Melgar, Inter played two matches in Serie A. First, the Reds defeated Fluminense at home. Then they beat Avai on the road with a minimal difference of 1:0. Such results allowed them to climb up to sixth place. That is, the Reds are currently in the Libertadores Cup zone. If Inter wins on Monday, they will overtake Atletico Paranaense, Corinthians, and Fluminense to become one of the three strongest teams in Brazil, so there is no need to talk about high motivation in the upcoming game. Inter's home stats are sixth in the division, +6=4-1, 23:11 goal difference, with only one draw against Sao Paulo in the last five home games and four wins.

Juventude has a 4-match winless streak - defeats to Bragantino, America, Cuiaba, and a draw against Juventude. Terrible results put them in 20th place in the standings with 17 points. The gap between Coritiba, which is in the safe 16th place, is 8 points. It is obvious that Juventude is the first contender to fly out of the Brazilian elite. Their away statistics are 17th in the division, +1=4-6, 8:20 goal difference.

Juventude has not scored in their last three away matches, while Inter has one of the best defenses in Brasileirao. There is every reason to believe that the Reds will not concede in the upcoming game, and the match is unlikely to be very rich in goals. As for the outcome, we are on the home team's side.
