RB Bragantino vs Coritiba Prediction: Red Bull wants to say goodbye to its fans with a win

It's been a bit of a disappointing end to the Brasileirão for RB Bragantino. The Massa Bruta had been in second place for five rounds but never won again. The pressure of fighting for the title was too much for a club that is still growing. RB Bragantino was one of the most solid teams in the Série A, and until recently, it was the team with the fewest defeats. Still, Bragantino faltered near the finish line, especially regarding effectiveness in front of goal. For the next season, it needs more goalscoring players.

RB Bragantino

Red Bull is in sixth place and has at least secured its place in the Copa Libertadores qualifying round. To qualify directly for the group stage, the team from Bragança Paulista would have to finish in the top 4. Four points off fourth place with only six points still to play for seems like a very difficult task. In any case, the team must win against relegated Coritiba, given the difference in quality between the teams.

Coritiba

The Coxa was in the spotlight in the last round despite already being relegated to the Série B. The team managed to equalize against Botafogo after conceding the game's first goal through a Tiquinho Soares penalty in the 95th minute. The referee let Coritiba have one more attacking move, and the truth is that the team did equalize in the 97th minute. The Coxa introduced some young players with next season in mind, and the same should happen in the game with RB Bragantino.

Expert Betting Tips

It would be a surprise if Bragantino didn't win this game despite its poor form. The goal of finishing in the top four seems difficult to achieve, but there is an obligation to win in the last game in front of its fans. The odds for a Red Bull win are low, so I'm adding a Total Under 4.5.
