Why Bet on Bahia?
Bahia comes to this matchday after losing against one of their direct rivals for the top, Flamengo. As a result, the team lost the opportunity to climb to the top of the standings and stay there alone.
After this 1-2 defeat, the Bahiaço dropped to fifth place in the table and has a record of five wins, three draws, and two losses, with 14 goals scored and 11 conceded. As we can see, the team’s offense has performed up to expectations, but the defense needs to be much more solid if they want to stay in the fight to be at the top of the table.
There is still a long way to go, but after a season fighting relegation all year, we can say that their start in the Brasileirão has been pretty successful.
Why Bet on Cruzeiro?
On the other hand, Cruzeiro is having a really interesting season, as they are currently in sixth place in the standings, with a record of five wins, two draws, and two losses. While they are almost in the middle of the table, the team is just four points from Fluminense at the top.
On top of that, the Raposa comes into this matchday 11 after three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five games, clearly showing that they are in phenomenal form. The team’s most recent match was a stupendous victory over Fluminense by 2-0.
