Bragantino and Bahia will meet in Bragança Paulista for one of the best games of Round 12. Bragantino is surprisingly third in the table with 23 points, one less than first-placed Flamengo. Bahia is in seventh with 18 points and will be looking to move closer to the leading group.

RB Bragantino: Form and statistics

The Massa Bruta won convincingly against Vasco da Gama in Rio de Janeiro in the last round. The Cariocas are usually strong at home, but they met a very confident and organized opponent this time. Bragantino scored after 2 minutes from a corner. Jhon Jhon crossed, Isidro Pitta headed the ball back, and Guilherme touched it into the net with his right foot. The game couldn't have started better for Bragantino. Vasco raised its lines, but Fernando Seabra's team had no trouble containing the opposition's attacks. In the 34th minute, Vinicinho crossed, Isidro Pitta controlled the ball with his chest, and fired in a volley to make it 2-0. Shortly after, Vasco hit the bar in the home team's biggest chance of the game. Vasco increased the tempo and pressed hard in the first 15 minutes of the second half but failed to score. From then on, Bragantino regained the momentum and secured the lead until the end. It was the first time in history that Bragantino beat Vasco at the São Januário and the second straight win in the league. Red Bull continues to prove that it's possible to build a strong team without stars.

Bahia: Form and statistics

The Tricolor de Aço beat São Paulo at home 2-1, an important result after the defeat to Internacional in the Copa Libertadores. It was the fourth straight home win in the league for Rogério Ceni's team. São Paulo had a tough time at the Arena Fonte Nova, where no visiting team has managed to win in the league so far. After a goalless first half, Willian José scored in the 53rd minute with a well-placed header. Twenty minutes later, the striker scored again from the penalty spot, and Bahia took a decisive lead. The Paulistas reduced the deficit in the 85th minute through Luciano, but the home side was able to take the win. The next game with Bragantino will be tough, not only because of the opposition's quality but also because the Baianos usually struggle away from home. Bahia needs to improve its performance on the road if it wants to fight for titles, something that still doesn't seem possible.

Rogério Ceni should field the same players who defeated São Paulo.

RB Bragantino vs Bahia match prediction 13 June 2025

Bragantino is in third place with 23 points, while Bahia is in seventh with 18. Although Red Bull is some places above Bahia in the table, both sides have similar quality and good defensive organization. Bragantino is the favorite as it plays at home, and Bahia has never triumphed in Bragança Paulista, a factor that must be considered. To leave the possibility of a draw open, I'm betting on a Double Chance in favor of Bragantino with a maximum of three goals scored.
