Why Bet on Bahia?
Bahia was victorious in its most recent match against Grêmio with a score of 2-0. Their performance has been inconsistent in the last four games, consisting of one loss, two wins, and two draws. During this period, they have conceded three goals and scored six.
With its last victory, the Bahiaço jumped to fifth place in the standings, with a record of eleven wins, five draws, and seven losses, with 33 goals scored and 25 conceded. They have won their last two games and are eight points behind Botafogo at the top.
It will be difficult for them to close that gap, but, there will be no better chance than this one, playing at their stadium, where they were invincible for a good chunk of the season. They already beat the Fogao there not long ago, on August 7, for the Copa do Brasil by 1-0, a win that propelled them to the semifinals.
Why Bet on Botafogo?
Botafogo goes into the upcoming match on a high note after their impressive win over Flamengo. Their recent performance has seen a combination of results, including two wins, one draw, and two losses. However, it’s understandable as they have been playing a lot recently, being alive in the Copa de Brasil until not long ago, as previously mentioned. In addition, this Wednesday, they achieved a massive feat by eliminating the favorite, Palmeiras, from the Copa Libertadores.
During this period, the Fogao has demonstrated its offensive prowess by scoring 12 goals for the Brasileirão. However, they have also faced challenges in defense, conceding ten goals to their opponents. This mixed form sets the stage for an intriguing and unpredictable encounter in their upcoming matches.
As mentioned, Botafogo still leads the standings, but right now, things are not entirely up to them. They are one point ahead of Fortaleza, with one game more. As a result, they could drop to second place at some moment without a chance to do anything. Whatever the case, the objective is still the same: win as many games as possible.
Final Betting Analysis: Bahia vs. Botafogo
Of their last five matches for the league, three were won by Bahia and two by Botafogo, so it’s fair to say that it is a balanced rivalry. Also, in that span, there were two victories by the visitor, so the locality doesn’t seem that determinant.
