Gremio vs Bahia Prediction and Betting Tips | July 12th 2023

Gremio take on Bahia at the Arena do Grêmio in the second leg of their Copa do Brasil quarter-final clash on Wednesday.

A place in the semi-finals will be up for grabs after both sides played out a 1-1 draw in last week’s reverse leg.

Gremio failed to return to winning ways as they fell to a 2-0 loss against Botafogo when the sides met on Sunday.

Prior to that, Renato Gaúcho’s men saw their three-match winning streak come to an end on July 5 as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Bahia in the first leg of their Copa do Brasil quarter-final clash.

Next up for the Imortal Tricolor is an opposing side who have failed to win their last four meetings, losing once and picking up three draws since July 2022.

Bahia, on the other hand, failed to find their feet as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Cuiaba last Saturday.

Renato Paiva’s men have now gone four straight games without a win, losing twice and claiming two draws since a 1-0 victory over Palmeiras on June 22.

While Bahia will be looking to return to winning ways, they have struggled for results away from home, where they are without a win in six consecutive matches.
