Bahia vs Cuiaba Prediction & Betting Tips (13 July)

It would be fair to say that Cuiaba have been struggling on their top-flight travels of late, with their current run of 10 consecutive defeats forming part of a 13-match winless sequence. Bahia, meanwhile, have enjoyed 13 wins in 16 home games at this level of late, plus confidence should be high after starting the season with a victory.

Cuiaba ended the previous campaign with a bang, but they have not been the same swashbuckling side so far this season, as each of their last nine games has produced three goals or fewer. This has also been the case in 16 of the most recent 18 Bahia home matches at this level, including in 10 in a row of late, so under 3.5 goals are expected here.

Cuiaba have been involved in some pretty entertaining encounters recently, with seven of their previous eight top-flight matches producing goals at both ends of the pitch. Given that eight of the last ten Bahia games at this level have followed the same pattern, it would come as a bit of a surprise were either keeper to emerge from this contest with a clean sheet.
