Double chance : Gremio or draw

Gremio are hosting Sao Paulo, but they have really struggled against this opponent in recent years. The last eight meetings have all ended in defeats for Gremio, including some heavy losses last season. Sao Paulo have clearly had their number, and Gremio will be desperate to finally change that. Gremio have been drawing a lot lately and have only won once in their last five games, so they are not in great form.

Sao Paulo have also had a few draws recently, but they did pick up a win in their last away game, which puts them in slightly better spirits. Given Gremio's terrible record against Sao Paulo and their own recent struggles, it is hard to see them getting a win here. The most likely outcome is a draw, with Sao Paulo having a much better chance of winning than Gremio.

REFEREE

A. Luis Skettino Policarpo Bento

  • Gremio have failed to beat Sao Paulo in their last nine meetings, losing seven of those encounters.
  • Sao Paulo have won the last five consecutive head-to-head matches against Gremio, with the most recent being a 2-0 victory in February 2026.
  • Gremio's only win in the last nine H2H clashes came back in February 2021, a 2-1 away triumph.
  • Sao Paulo's last defeat to Gremio was over five years ago, highlighting their dominant run in this fixture.
  • Both teams are level on recent form, with each drawing their last two league matches.
  • The prediction model gives Gremio and the draw a combined 90% chance of avoiding defeat, with Sao Paulo at just 10%.
  • Sao Paulo dominate possession on average (58.3%) compared to Gremio's 49.4%, but Gremio edge the goal-scoring average slightly (1.38 vs 1.32 per game).
  • Despite their poor H2H record, Gremio hold a significant 71% form advantage over Sao Paulo based on recent performances.
  • Gremio's historical head-to-head struggles are evident, as they have lost by two or more goals in four of their last six meetings.
  • The highest-value betting market is a Double Chance on Gremio or Draw, priced at 1.40 with Betfair.
  • In their most recent clash (Feb 2026), Sao Paulo secured a clean sheet, and they have kept two clean sheets in the last four H2H matches.
  • Predicted match outcome heavily favors Gremio on attack (64% vs 36%), yet their 56% defensive weakness gives Sao Paulo a chance to continue their H2H streak.
