Palmeiras vs Bahia Prediction 07.07.2024

• Competition: Brazil - Serie A
• Date: 07.07.2024
• Kickoff: 22:30 UTC +1 / 23:30 CEST
• Venue: Allianz Parque (Sao Paulo)

One of the best Brazilian clubs ever, Palmeiras, is also at the top of the table this season and is aiming for the title of Brazilian champion. They are currently in 2nd place along with Botafogo and Bahia. All three teams have won 27 points so far, which is 3 points less than the leader Flamengo RJ, which is probably the biggest favorite for the throne. However, Palmeiras will try to take advantage of their good form, especially at home, where they have won the last 4 matches, and enter the fight for 1st place.

Speaking of home ground, Palmeiras' rival in this match, Bahia, is the best team when it comes to home matches. They have won all 7 matches so far, but that's why their performance on away games was below average. Bahia won once in the previous 7 away games. This team is definitely lurking from the edge and will try to upset the favorites like Flamengo and Palmeiras

Palmeiras vs Bahia pick: PALMEIRAS TO WIN

In the previous 4 matches at home, Palmeiras scored 9 goals and they are playing better and gradually improving their form, which is specific for big teams. In the previous 10 matches at this stadium, Bahia won only once and tradition is not on their side. It is clear that this is a very dangerous team but against Palmeiras defense they will need a lot of possession and good chances to score. Hard, defensive football is expected, but also a victory for the home team, which would keep them in the race for the title.
