Bahia vs Mirassol Prediction: The Baianos are confident

Bahia will host Mirassol, a team newly promoted from the Série B, in a game where it is the clear favorite. Rogério Ceni's men have picked up two good away results in one week and are in good form.

Bahia

Playing against Santos at the Vila Belmiro is always tricky for the visitors, which was evident last weekend. Bahia opened the score after 17 minutes, but Santos equalized in the first half through Thaciano. The midfielder didn't celebrate because he played for Bahia for several seasons. The home side made it 2-1 in the 81st minute, but the Baianos didn't give up and managed to equalize in the 90th minute through Luciano Juba. It was one of the best games in the Brasileirao so far. A few days later, Bahia played Nacional in Montevideo for the Copa Libertadores and managed to win away in the competition for the first time in its history. Pulga scored the game's only goal with a curling shot that hit the post before going in.

Mirassol

The Lion got its first point in the Série A for the first time ever. The achievement was greatly celebrated as Mirassol was losing to Fortaleza at home, and the equalizer came in the 93rd minute through Cristian. Guanaes' men fully deserved the result, as they had 20 shots against seven and finished with 71% possession. It won't be easy to repeat the draw against Bahia, but nothing is impossible in this league. The Baianos had little time to rest, and Mirassol could take advantage.

Expert Betting Tips

Bahia is highly motivated by recent results, especially the historic victory in the Copa Libertadores, its first outside Brazil. Rogério Ceni's men are playing well, suggesting they will have a good campaign again. Mirassol got its first point in the Série A in the last round and will try to surprise the Baianos. The teams have never officially met, but Bahia is the favorite, and I'm not taking any chances. I will bet on the home side winning with a maximum of five goals scored in the match to increase the odds.
