These are our Bahia vs Cruzeiro predictions and tips:
Contents
Bahia Draw No Bet
To be fair, both teams have struggled to find their footing in recent weeks. However, Bahia have fared relatively better than today’s opponents. On one hand, Cruzeiro have no wins in their last five matches; they are coming off back-to-back losses, and have lost three of their last five games. On the other hand, Bahia suffered one loss in their last five games, with a win and three draws. Considering they have the advantage of playing at home, we are leaning towards Bahia with the draw no bet option.
Both Teams to Not Score
Our second Bahia vs Cruzeiro prediction is on the BTTS market. We’ve already established that Cruzeiro have no wins in their last five matches; this is due, in part, to their inefficiency in front of goal. As a matter of fact, Pepa’s men failed to score in three of their last four matches, registering just one goal in that stretch. Likewise, Bahia blanked in three of their last five games, whilst keeping two clean sheets in that stretch. At least one team did not score in three of Cruzeiro’s last four matches, three of Bahia’s last five games too. Furthermore, both teams managed to get on the scoresheet in just one of the last five encounters between these teams. That said, we shouldn’t expect goals at both ends.
A Low-scoring Affair
Bahia and Cruzeiro have locked horns on many occasions, and most of their recent clashes have been low-scoring matches. In fact, all of the last eight skirmishes between these teams featured less than three goals. Likewise, both teams have been involved in their fair share of low-scoring games these past few weeks. It may interest you to know that all of Bahia’s last five matches went below the 2.5 goal mark, all of Cruzeiro’s last five games as well. On that note this will likely be a low-scoring game.
