The Best Betting Tips and Bahia vs Goias Prediction
Bahia to Win
The Emerald Green lost every game they played away from home. Taking into account their defensive weakness, pure Bahia vs Goias prediction is that the home team will stand firm in their stadium and take three points. The away team’s attacking play was ineffective when not playing in their stadium.
Bahia to Score First
Defensively, Goiás has statistics that do not favour them. In five of their last seven meetings, they were the first to concede goals. Bahia scored most of their goals at home, so we expect them to be the team that opens the scoring.
Both Teams to Score
In the last five head-to-head meetings between these two Bahia vs Goias line ups we saw BTTS. Moreover, in 8 of the last 10 Tricolor of Steel games, the score has been more than 2.5 goals. In all of them, we saw BTTS. Based on those stats, we think the guest will score their first away goal of the season and the host will score their 7th home goal.
Interesting Bahia vs Goias Preview
Bahia
Tricolor of Steel has two consecutive defeats in the league and is slowly slipping back to the bottom of the table. Despite having a good goal average, the defensive line has not been very solid. That has been one of the reasons why they have failed in the last few rounds.
In matchday 6, Bahia played at home against Flamengo in a duel that was controversial because of the number of goals and the couple of expulsions Tricolor of Steel suffered in the last 15 minutes. Flamengo lost 3-2, making it clear to coach Renato Paiva that he must work hard in the defensive zone to avoid conceding too many goals.
Goias
The Emerald Green returned to winning ways after three consecutive defeats in the Brasileirao. Even so, the team coached by Emerson Ávila remains in 15th position with only 6 points after 6 rounds. One of their weaknesses has been their attacking play as they have a low goals scored average.
The previous matchday they played at home and had one of the most surprising results, beating the table leaders who had been the only team to win all their previous matches. It was a real challenge for Bahia to Win this match as it was their opponents who opened the scoring in the 33rd minute. With goals from Bruno Melo and Maguinho, The Emerald Green turned the match around.
