Our Top Vasco da Gama vs Bahia Prediction and Betting Tips
Vasco da Gama to Win
The previous year the two teams met on a couple of occasions in the second division of Brazilian football. Both teams won the h2h they played at home, and the difference in each match was only one goal. The away team has yet to win while the home team has yet to lose. Based on these facts, our first Vasco da Gama vs Bahia prediction is that all three points will stay at home.
BTTS
The away team has struggled for accuracy, yet they have scored a goal in each of their two matches so far. The host has an average of 2.00 goals per game. For this reason, we think we will see both Vasco da Gama vs Bahia line ups put the ball in the net at least once.
Vasco da Gama to Score First
The home team has already played several duels against top teams, and other slightly less strong teams. In most of their encounters they have been the first to score, even against the current champions of the Brazilian league. So it is likely that Vasco da Gama will open the scoring in this match.
Preview of Vasco da Gama vs Bahia
Vasco da Gama
Vasco da Gama remains unbeaten on their return to the Brasileirao A Series. In matchday 1, the team coached by Mauricio Barbieri surprised by winning 2-1 away to Atletico Mineiro. The team then had an even bigger challenge when they played at home against the reigning champions of Brazilian football.
In this duel, Vasco da Gama surprised their opponents by scoring two goals in the first 40 minutes. They were not able to keep the lead and stop the constant attacks of Palmeiras who had a total of seven shots on target and got a draw.
Bahia
Coach Renato Paiva is not at all satisfied with his debut in the Serie A of Brazilian football. That’s two defeats by the same scoreline. On matchday 1, Bahia lost 2-1 away to Bragantino, and the same happened on matchday 2 at home to Botafogo.
In this match, Bahia had more possession and even more shots than their opponents but very little accuracy. Only Victor Jacare was able to beat the goalkeeper but this goal was not enough to avoid defeat. For the moment the only joy for the newly promoted team was their double victory against Volta Redonda to advance to the Copa do Brasil.
