My Prediction
Santos by 1Okay, let's talk Brazilian football with an exciting match between Santos and Bahia.
Now, Santos looks quite strong. Bahia's goalkeeper, Ronaldo, has been doing well with a decent 7.00 rating and 3 saves to his name. However, Santos isn't lagging behind with Gabriel Brazão's comparable performance at a 6.70 rating and the same number of saves.
I feel it's necessary to mention Bahia's key players, Gilberto and Luciano Juba. Gilberto's got an 8.10 rating with a successful goal, while Luciano Juba has an 8.00 rating and an impressive 92.7% accurate pass percentage. On the other hand, Santos is looking equally solid with Gabriel Bontempo and Tiquinho Soares having 7.40 and 7.20 ratings respectively. Not to mention the promising Álvaro Barreal, who already holds a goal to his name.
Recalling their past matchups, Santos gets a nod, boasting a win with a 2-1 score and a clean sweep with a 3-0 victory, both against Bahia.
This season's record for both of them doesn't speak volumes yet, with Bahia at 0 wins, 1 draw, 0 losses, and Santos at 0 wins, 0 draws, 1 loss.
Looking at Bahia's recent results, they have a mixed bag featuring everything from draws, wins, and a loss. Santos, however, presents a concerning pattern with a series of losses.
Despite Santos's soggy patch, the history between these two teams and the standout performers for Santos give them an edge, in my oh-so-humble opinion.
