Athletico-PR – Bragantino : Preview & Prediction
Last year they finished the tournament in mid-table with the same points (53): this year things seem to be different for Atletico Paranaense and Bragantino, two teams in strong growth. Atletico Paranaense, thanks to an excellent start (4 out of 4 wins), reached the top positions of the standings, but in the last few days it is easing a bit, as shown by the 2-1 defeat at Santos. After 9 games the Curitiba team is still a stone’s throw from the first place occupied jointly by Palmeiras and Bragantino. Characteristic of the Rossoneri’s matches is at least in the last few matches the high number of goals: at least three per match in the last six. The Paranaensi have scored in the last fourteen matches despite not having a real goalscorer (the top scorer, Matheus Babi. Is stopped at 3). Bragantino for their part has the best outside performance of Brasileirao and have won all five games played away from Bragança with the best attack of the tournament (20 goals so far in total). The team is still undefeated.
Atletico Paranaense and Bragantino are respectively third with one game less and first tied in the Brasileirao.
Bragantino away from home have won 5 out of 5 matches.
Atletico Paranaense suffer goals from 6 consecutive games but have always scored in the last 14.
Bragantino has the best attack of the tournament: 20 goals scored in 10 games.
The last matches have shown the difficulties of Atletico Paranaense but the match between two teams of similar level appears balanced. Balanced are also the sides on the field with many men able to score; Bragantino however appears favored by virtue of external performance. We are confident that the “X2 + Goal” combo (of both) will come true.
