Mirassol vs Juventude: Prediction and odds on the Brasileirão match on September 21, 2025

Mirassol will host Juventude at the Maião following a crazy match against Botafogo.

Mirassol: Form and statistics

In midweek, Mirassol drew 3-3 away to Botafogo, in a postponed Round 12 match. Mirassol has been a tough opponent for all teams, so drawing with the defending champion is not surprising, but even so, the Little Lion found a way to earn even more admiration. Botafogo led 3-0 at halftime, in an unrecognizable performance by Mirassol, which is usually an organized team. Rafael Guanaes made a substitution at halftime, putting Chico da Costa on the field, and the forward only needed 30 seconds to make it 3-1. The goal gave the visitors confidence, and in the 58th minute, Jemmes made it 3-2. The draw began to loom over the stadium, and in the 61st minute, Lucas Ramón made it 3-3. In 16 minutes, Mirassol scored three goals, leaving Botafogo fans in shock. From then on, there were no major scoring opportunities, and Mirassol managed to secure another point. The Paulistas now have 39 points and are in an incredible fourth place, which gives them direct access to the group stage of the Copa Libertadores. This draw allowed Mirassol to maintain a three-point lead over Botafogo, fifth in the table. The Little Lion has only lost three times in the league, which is remarkable for a team that has been promoted from the Série B.

Juventude: Form and statistics

Juventude lost 2-0 at home to Flamengo in the last round and remains in 18th place, stuck in the relegation zone. The Gaúchos struggled against the Série A leader and hardly threatened Rossi's goal. Flamengo finished with 74% possession, a statistic that clearly reflects the Cariocas' overwhelming dominance. Flamengo opened the scoring through Arrascaeta in the 32nd minute, who headed in an excellent pass from Saúl. Juventude did not change its approach in the second half, preferring to concede possession and contain Flamengo's attacks, waiting for a mistake from its opponent that never came. Emerson Royale sealed the result in the 87th minute, also with a header, after a cross from Carrascal. Juventude had not lost at home to Flamengo in 28 years, but the unbeaten run has come to an end. Thiago Carpini's team's upcoming match will be tough, as Mirassol continues to perform at a high level.

Juventude: Lineup

Batalla and Giraldo are available again after serving their suspensions. Ewerthon and Rodrigo Sam have recovered from injury and returned to training. Ênio received his third yellow card against Flamengo and will serve a one-match ban. Venezuelan center back Wilker Ángel has suffered an injury.

🔖Juventude starting lineup (4-3-3)

Jandrei – Reginaldo, Luan Freitas, Marcos Paulo, Hermes – Jadson, Caíque, Mandaca – Batalla, Veron, Taliari

Mirassol vs Juventude match prediction 21 September 2025

Mirassol continues to impress the fans of Brazilian football, and its last game showed that fourth place in the table is well deserved. Botafogo led 3-0 at halftime, but Mirassol made a fantastic comeback, scoring three goals in 15 minutes. Juventude secured the first away win in Round 22, but it is unlikely to repeat it at the Maião, where Mirassol is yet to lose. Anything is possible in this league, but I'm going to bet on Mirassol to win with a maximum of four goals scored to increase the odds.
