Why Bet on Atlético Mineiro?
Atlético-MG is always a candidate in the Brasileirão due to its investment year after year and because it was champion a couple of seasons ago. However, it has not yet reached the first place.
Thanks to its last draw, the Galo is in seventh place with nine points, so far undefeated, with two wins and three draws. Their goal difference is +6. It is not a bad season, especially because they have only played five matches, and if they win the game they have in hand, they will be in third place.
The results are in favor of this team, which advanced at the top of its group in the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores and has had a good defense at home, allowing only three goals.
Gabriel Milito’s team has all its players available for this match.
Why Bet on Bahía?
Bahia is giving its fans reason to believe that 2024 can be a good year because its performance has been well above expectations. The Tricolor de Aço is in second place, with the same 13 points as the leader, Athletico Paranaense. It has four wins, one draw, and one defeat. It is in second place because its goal difference is +3, as it has allowed six goals while scoring nine.
Precisely, of those goals against, five have come away from home, where it has four points out of a possible nine. In other words, they are not a regular visitor in the Brasileirão.
Their most outstanding strikers are Everaldo, with three goals, followed by Biel, with two goals and one assist.
For now, Uruguayan Nicolás Acevedo and Ryan are doubts about Rogerio Ceni.
