Bragantino vs Athletico PR Prediction & Preview
Preview
The 18th round of the Brazil Serie A gets underway on Sunday, July 21st, with Bragantino hosting Athletico PR at Estádio Cicero de Souza Marques. The two teams have a rich history, having played each other five times in the past, with Bragantino winning twice, Athletico PR winning twice, and one match ending in a draw.
Bragantino, currently sitting 10th in the league table with 22 points, will be looking to bounce back from their recent poor form. In their last five matches, they have only managed one win, three losses, and one draw, taking four points from those games. Their last match saw them travel to Estadio Monumental Banco Pichincha, where they played out a 1-1 draw against Barcelona Guayaquil.
Athletico PR, on the other hand, are 8th in the league table with 25 points. They have fared slightly better than their opponents, taking six points from their last five games, which includes two wins and three losses. Their last match was also a 1-1 draw, this time against Cerro Porteño at Estadio General Pablo Rojas.
In terms of goals, Bragantino averages 1.2 goals per game, while Athletico PR scores an average of 1.6 goals per game. Defensively, both teams concede an average of 1.4 goals per game. When playing at home, Bragantino tend to score more, averaging three goals per game, while Athletico PR score an average of 1.5 goals per game on the road.
The last time these two teams met was on October 8th, 2023, when they played out a 1-1 draw at Arena de Baixada.
Bet
Considering the recent form and head-to-head records, Bragantino are favorites to win this match with odds of 2.2. However, Athletico PR have shown they can cause problems for their opponents, especially on the road.
Given the statistics, I would recommend a bet on Under 2.5 goals at odds of 1.72. Both teams have struggled to score recently, and their defensive records are relatively strong. With Bragantino averaging 1.2 goals per game and Athletico PR conceding an average of 1 goal per game away from home, this bet seems like a safe option with decent returns.
