Betting on Cuiaba
Cuiaba couldn’t capitalize on its recent victory in the Campeonato Matogrossense to start its Brasileirao season on a high note. Actually, it suffered a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Palmeiras in the opening game.
However, returning home should boost the confidence of Portuguese coach Ivo Vieira’s team. It is currently unbeaten at home in 2023, and has won nine out of ten games played in its own stadium.
In fact, the Dorado will kick off its league season at home, riding a 12-game unbeaten streak.Besides, it has not lost in the last three encounters with Bragantino, which suggests that Cuiaba might improve on that record a bit further.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Walter; Mateusinho, Marllon, Allyson, Matheus Alexandre; Reniele, Denilson; Jonathan Cafú, Pablo Ceppelini, Isidro Pitta; Deyverson.
Betting on Bragantino
Unlike Cuiaba, Bragantino had an outstanding start to the league, securing a 2-1 victory over Bahia even after conceding a demoralizing goal at the end of the first half.
That home win is part of Braga’s spectacular April, as it began its journey in the 2023 Sudamericana Cupwith impressive victories in the first two group stage matches, with a 1-4 away win over Tacuary and a 5-0 win over Oriente Petrolero last Tuesday.
Maintaining this momentum will be crucial if Bragantino wants to get a positive result in this game, since it has only won one of its last 11 away matches in the top Brazilian league. Moreover, the team has conceded two or more goals in eight of those matches.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Lucao; Aderlan, Eduardo Santos, Natan, Juninho Capixaba; Jadson, Matheus Fernandes; Talisson, Bruninho, Sorriso; Alerrandro.
JefeBet Prediction
Bragantino comes into this game in a fantastic form, scoring 11 goals in the last three official matches. It sure knows how to hurt the home team, against whiom it usually performs well.
However, it’s important to note that Bragantino tends to struggle when it is not playing at home, and this match will likely be no exception, especially since it will be facing a strong opponent on the road.
Therefore, at JefeBet, we expect a tight and entertaining Cuiaba vs Bragantino match, where both teams will have plenty of opportunities in the opposing areas and will score at least once.
Prediction: Both teams will score: Yes (CUI 1-1 BRA).
