APWin Prediction

Bahia Win

APWin experts have analyzed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: Fortaleza win or draw

Fortaleza has been a thorn in the side of many teams of late, and even away from home, they are quite a dangerous opponent for anyone. So as they travel to face Bahia, our betting tip is Fortaleza win or draw on the Double Chance market, which means they can either win or draw for the bet to win.

It would honestly not be that big of a surprise if Fortaleza emerged victorious against Bahia given the quality they've shown, but claiming a point is a much more realistic goal.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

After scanning the different markets for Bahia vs Fortaleza, we find that under 9.5 corners is the most eye-catching bet based on the playing profile of the two sides.

We don't foresee much free-flowing attacking football from the two teams, which will greatly reduce the chances of them winning the 10 total corners required to sink this bet.
