RB Bragantino vs Corinthians Prediction: RB Bragantino is very close to the top

Leader Botafogo's 4-3 defeat by Palmeiras in the last round reignited the fight for the title of Brazil. In addition to the Paulistas, RB Bragantino also profited from that result, as the side beat Goiás away from home. Botafogo remains in command of the Brasileirão with 59 points, with one game in hand. In second place is Palmeiras with 56 points, and in third with 55 points comes Bragantino, also with one game in hand. In two rounds, Red Bull will host Botafogo in a match that promises to be hot.

RB Bragantino

The Massa Bruta picked up a solid 2-0 win at the Serrinha against Goiás. Pedro Caixinha's team didn't tremble and did its job. Although the club doesn't admit it, the truth is that Bragantino is really fighting for the league title. It remains to be seen whether the team's behavior will change, being so close to the top of the league. So far, the pressure hasn't affected the players. The target of reaching the Copa Libertadores seems to be within reach, as the top six have the chance to qualify for the competition. However, with only four points from first place, it's impossible not to think about becoming champion. Of course, Red Bull's goal is to beat Corinthians.

Corinthians

The Timão got a precious win against Athletico Paranaense and is going through a positive moment. In the six Série A matches under Mano Menezes, Corinthians has managed two wins and four draws, slightly improving its standings. The Paulistas are currently in 12th place with 40 points, in a position to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana. A draw at the Nabizão against Bragantino would be good for the team, as it would not only pick up a point but also maintain its unbeaten run.

Expert Betting Tips

RB Bragantino is the favorite, although there is still some expectation about the team's performance when so close to first place. Can Red Bull handle the pressure and play as well as normal? Corinthians will be looking for a draw away from home, most likely adopting a defensive system. I'll opt for a bet on a game with less than three goals. It could suit a 1-0 or 2-0 win for Bragantino, but it could also suit a surprise if Red Bull isn't at its usual level.
