RB Bragantino 10/11 to beat Athletico PA in Sunday’s Brazil Serie A contest

Competition: Brazil Serie A

Market: RB Bragantino win

Odds: 10/11 @ 888sport

Looking to extend on what has been a real purple patch as we inch closer to the New Year, RB Bragantino will host a struggling Athletico PA on Sunday evening.

Starting with the hosts, continuing on what has been an eye-catching run of form, RB Bragantino have skyrocketed their way up the Serie A table and they are firmly in the Copa Sudamericana race. In their 25 top-flight contests so far this season, they have recorded seven wins, 10 draws and eight defeats, scoring 31 and conceding 29 in return. Managing to collect a points tally of 31, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 12th in the table and holding a one-point buffer from slipping out of the Copa Sudamericana qualifying spots. As for their recent run of results, collecting a 2-1 victory against Fortaleza last time out, RB Bragantino are unbeaten in their last six Serie A contests on the bounce and have conceded just a single goal in any of their last four appearances. It should also be noted that Sunday’s hosts have collected seven points from their last three contests on home soil.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a hugely worrying run of form as we inch closer to the New Year, Athletico PA have freefallen down the table. In their 25 Serie A matchups so far this year, they have recorded eight wins, four draws and 13 defeats, scoring 20 and conceding 28 in return. Managing to collect a points tally of 28, they open Sunday’s fixtures sat 14th in the table and three points adrift of breaking into the Copa Sudamericana positions. As for their recent run of results, including a 1-0 defeat against Atlético Mineiro on home soil last time out, this weekend’s guests have lost each of their last four matchups across all formats, scoring just a single goal. More worrying, along with failing to win any of their last five contests on the bounce, they have also lost their last three consecutive away fixtures.
