Under 2.5 Goals

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Cruzeiro to win the 1st half

The various signs and statistics we have studied point to this being a one-sided affair, with the favoured Cruzeiro likely coming out on top away from home. Cruzeiro has simply been the superior team this season, whereas Bahia has struggled.

But for some added value, we recommend betting on Cruzeiro to win the first half, which would bring a higher potential payout.

👉 Our prediction is: Cruzeiro win or draw

We feel strongly about Cruzeiro's chances of leaving with a point, or maybe even more. That is why our betting tip is Cruzeiro to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

Cruzeiro has shown considerable courage and determination in their recent away performances, while Bahia's form has not been the most convincing. So while an away win might be too much to ask for, Cruzeiro is more than capable of collecting a point in this match.
