Betting on Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama 2022 Série B Games

CR Vasco da Gama is a famous Brazilian football team situated in Rio de Janeiro, currently playing in Série B. Nicknamed the ‘Great Vasco’, the club was formed in 1915 and is now in its second consecutive season playing in Série B, having been relegated from Série A in the 2020 season. This is only the fifth season Vasco has played in Série B since 1970. Last season they finished in 10th place in Série B, only 6 points clear of the relegation zone.

CR Vasco da Gama Squad

Vasco and their fans will be in a more buoyant mood than last season as they are challenging for promotion to Série A, a league that they have won on four occasions, the last time being in 2000. Vasco also won Série B in 2009. The remaining home games will see a packed 22,000-capacity São Januário stadium cheering on Vasco. Entering the final games of the season, Vasco looks well placed for promotion and benefits from a strong positive goal difference, so success is in their hands.

Former Brazilian international Jorginho is the manager of Vasco. He represented Brazil 64 times and also played for Vasco towards the end of his playing career, having played for Bundesliga giants Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich earlier in his career. This is his third spell managing Vasco.

Within the squad, goalkeeper Thiago Rodriguez has been leaking approximately 0.81 goals per game and is one of the leading in the division for clean sheets. In front of Rodriguez, stalwart Edimar plays at left-back while the experienced Anderson, who has played in Europe and the MLS, slots in at centre-back.

The player with the greatest number of assists in Série B is Nenê, who is still playing football at the age of 41 years old. Raniel has been playing as a forward and has been scoring approximately one goal every three games.

Vasco started the season strongly and if they can find that type of form to conclude their remaining games, then there should be no problem in consolidating their promotion position.

Betting on Vasco da Gama

Vasco doesn’t spend much time in Série B and they have the chance to return to Série A, so let’s find out the types of bets available for the final games of the 2022 season.

Vasco da Gama to Win or Draw or Lose

Early season will have seen the odds for Vasco shortening for them to win or draw a game as they went 14 matches unbeaten. However, the markets will have reacted to their more unpredictable form mid-season. Vasco recently had a home fixture against lowly Novorinzontino and was priced at 1.65 to win the game, a draw had odds of 3.1 and a win for visiting Novorinzontino would return 3.7.

Both Teams to Score

The concept is easy to grasp all you need to do is decide and bet on both teams scoring or the game ending in a goalless stalemate. Let us take a look at a game between two of the highest-scoring teams that are found in the top half of the table. Vasco played an away game against Cruzeiro with both teams well-placed in the league. Odds were available at 1.75 for both teams to score and were longer at 2.25 for the result being goalless.

Vasco da Gama to Score in Both Halves

Being one of the highest-scoring teams in Série B 2022, betting on Vasco to score in both the first half and second half is an interesting proposition. However, it should be treated with caution. For example, Vasco was priced at 1.83 for the home game against Ituana but this bet will not have won as the game ended 1 – 1.

Correct Score

With more choices of outcomes when guessing the correct score, the odds tend to be longer, especially if your stake is placed on predicting a high-scoring match. If you had predicted a 1 – 1 result in the match against Ituana, odds of 6.50 were available. If the bet was 2 – 2 and the final score matched this, then you would have benefited from incredible odds of 15.00.

Outright Markets

While the league title has already been decided you still have the opportunity to place a wager on which teams will finish in the remaining promotion places. Alternatively, place a wager on which team will be relegated.

If Vasco finishes the season as they started it, Série A football beckons next season. The season is coming to its final games so take the opportunity to check out all the exciting betting options available for CR Vasco da Gama.
