Betting on Esporte Clube Bahia
After a year in Serie B, the Tricolor returned to Serie A with a rocky start to the season, but it seems to have picked up the pace. The goal is to accumulate points to avoid staying in the lower part of the standings where the competition will be intense.
Following two consecutive defeats against Bragantino and Botafogo (both by a score of 2-1), this team won against Volta Redonda (4-0) in the Copa do Brasil and defeated Vasco da Gama (1-0). The latter was a dramatic match where it didn’t see much of the ball in the second half, but held onto the result well.
Bahia hasn’t won the Brasileirao since 1988. Therefore, the mission is to return to the glory days of the 80s and reclaim its spot at the top.
Possible Lineup (5-4-1): Marcos Felipe; Vitos Jacaré, Kanu, David Duarte, Rezende, Matheus Bahia; Ademir, Thaciano, Nicolás Acevedo, Cauly; Everaldo.
Betting on Coritiba Foot Ball Club
The Glorious hasn’t had the best start to the Brasileirao. This team hasn’t won in three games (losing 3-0 to Flamengo and Fortaleza) and has only scored one goal while conceding seven. Additionally, it didn’t perform well in the Copa do Brasil, losing 2-0 to Sport Recife.
In its latest match, it managed to secure a good draw against Sao Paulo (1-1) at home, which was the closest it’s come to a victory so far this season. However, once again, its defense made mistakes, and it conceded the equalizer in the 81st minute.
Last season, Coritiba managed to avoid relegation, but it seems like it’ll be fighting to stay in the Serie A again this campaign. The team is not up to the level of the top division, and Antonio Carlos Zago, who recently took charge of the team, hasn’t been able to find a solid defense.
Possible Lineup (3-4-3): Gabriel Vasconcelos; Benjamin Kuscevic, Bruno Viana, Victor Luis; Natanael, Bruno Gomes, Willian Farias, Jamerson; Kaio Cesar, Alef Manga, Rodrigo Pinho
JefeBet Prediction
Based on the current form of both teams, we believe that Bahia will put in a strong performance playing at home, and its momentum will help it secure a crucial victory that will see this team climb up the ranking.
