Prediction Amazonas vs Criciúma 2025 – Betting Tips for the Serie B on 07/10/2025

Context and stakes in Manaus

Amazonas arrive at Estádio Municipal Carlos Zamith under pressure. The club sit 19th in Serie B after 30 matches, a sequence of results that reads like a warning: six victories, ten draws and fourteen defeats, and a goal difference that leans heavily against them. Their recent patch has been jagged — a draw with Athletic Club was the latest stop in a run that contains far more disappointments than celebrations — and the home crowd in Manaus will demand urgency. Venue capacity and local conditions add colour to the occasion, but at heart Amazonas need points and momentum, and they have shown they can grind out draws; ten of their matches have ended level this season.

Criciúma’s momentum and how it shapes the tie

Criciúma roll into the north with confidence and consistency. Third in the table with 50 points after 30 rounds, they have turned productive attacking stats and a resilient defence into meaningful results. Their recent form is emphatic: a run featuring six wins in the last ten, only one loss and a string of unbeaten displays that demonstrate both scoring punch and match management. Statistically Criciúma outshoots and creates more dangerous attacks on average than Amazonas, and their clean sheet tally is impressive – a sign that when they control games they know how to close them out.

What the numbers whisper — and shout

The sample of past meetings this season offers a reminder that these fixtures can produce bite: Criciúma beat Amazonas 3-2 earlier in the campaign, a match that underlined their ability to both score and defend when it matters. Amazonas’ defensive fragility is evident in the goals conceded column, and while they have produced pockets of attacking threat at home, their overall conversion and consistency have been lacking. Bookmakers have priced this contest tightly — home and away odds are identical at 2.70 with the draw at 3.00 — which reflects the unpredictability of away travel and the midweek pressures of Serie B, yet the underlying trend favours the visitors.

Prediction and betting suggestion

Given the gulf in table position, recent form and the way Criciúma manage both attack and defence this season, the sensible call leans toward an away victory. Criciúma’s string of positive results, superior shot and dangerous-attack numbers and a previous head-to-head win over Amazonas point toward them taking maximum points in Manaus.

Betting suggestion: Back Criciúma to win (1X2 market — Away).
