At least Corinthians did not lose the match against Inter, but stayed at relegation zone
I know you guys didn't believe in relegation of the team, but each match in the last four spots, it's becoming harder to get out
It's only one point behing Fluminense, but with 1 more match
It was a round with some surprises, like the loss of Fortaleza, Cruzeiro and São Paulo, these 3 teams disapointed and lost precious points that can make the difference in a near future
Botafogo is in a good position right now after Palmeiras draw

What a player Igor Jesus is! The best in field against Athlético Paranaense today. Thanks to him Botafogo scored one goal and kept the leadership on the championship. It wasn't an easy game, because Botafogo missed too many opportunities and had a lot of difficult passing the ball beyond middle field, but goalkeeper John and his loyal defensive players did their job with excellency today.
Also nice to see the performances of Savarino, who almost scored a beautiful goal from distance, and Alex Telles who already adapted himself to the team quite fast.
It's still possible to improve a lot considering the quality of Botafogo's squad this year, but they already deserve to be congratulated for what has been shown so far: entertaining matches, passionate gameplay and positive overall results.

A bet on Fortaleza is really interesting, but Corinthians is in a desperate situation. I think that if Corinthians had beaten Flamengo in the Copa do Brasil match, it would be a good option to bet on a victory, because the team would still be very excited... but with the defeat to Flamengo, the risk increases a lot.
And betting on Fortaleza winning wasn't a good option for me hehehe
I didn't think Gremio would get that win, and once again Fortaleza are wasting very important points to keep fighting for the title
I'm following the Corinthians game live now, it's 1x1
I'm not at all excited and not believe in a victory
If it stays a draw, at least it's 1 more point for Corinthians against a strong team (Inter)
It was a very risky move, and I think it was even riskier for Filipe Luis, because he is young and has a lot of responsibility. If everything goes wrong, he could simply end his hopes of being a coach. I'm rooting for things to work out. From what I've seen, he took note of Jorge Jesus' training days and has already confirmed that Flamengo will play offensively and put a lot of pressure on the opponent.
Tomorrow will be Filipe Luis' debut in the Brazilian league as Flamengo's coach. From what I've read in the news, he won't make any major changes to the team that started playing. He'll probably just change Alex Sandro to put in Ayrton Lucas. The opponent is not weak and they'll be playing at home. Even though Bahia has only won 2 of their last 5 games, they currently occupy 6th place and are only 3 points behind Flamengo. So this will be a big test for Flamengo's new coach.
Gremio 3 - 1 Fortaleza
Fortaleza had a great chance of finishing at the top of the table this season, but with inconsistent performances, they wasted a good chance. Now they need to fight to at least finish in a good position, because they can still drop many positions.
I never believed that this Fortaleza team would have the consistency needed to win the Brazilian championship. No matter how well the team did in the championship, being champion is another story. They need something more, which neither Fortaleza nor Botafogo have.
Flamengo with Filipe Luis has a lot of potential, at least he is not as stubborn as Tite. The team will certainly work hard for him, especially Gabigol. Now we just have to wait and see how long this "honeymoon" with the fans and the team will last.
Fortaleza only brings me disappointment in these bets. The game started well and everything was tied, but when they fall behind it seems like they become one of those amateur teams, this is incredible and happens every game.
I was also surprised by Fortaleza's performance in relation to Grêmio in this match, I was betting on Fortaleza's victory, they lost badly in a comeback, they lost the chance to occupy 2nd place in the Brasileirão.For gamblers, there aren't easy games to bet. Now I see why sports betting and gambling in general are raising a lot of complaints and worries in Brazil. People are wasting money on unpredictable matches, and that is money they can't afford to lose... More than 545$ million dollars from a government's welfare program were used by brazilians to gamble online recently. That is money they were supposed to use for basic needs...
Yes, this is for you to see how the betting segment is so strong in brazil, the government even proposed cutting the social assistance benefit so as not to use it for betting. Gremio 3 - 1 Fortaleza

After the defensive stance against Botafogo in the previous match, I would never bet on Gremio this time, but they did it against Fortaleza somehow. If Fortaleza continues like this, they aren't even going to finished among the six first positions to participate Libertadores da América championship. From fourth to eighth positions every teams are almost tied, so any of them can still reach further on this competition.Fortaleza had a great chance of finishing at the top of the table this season, but with inconsistent performances, they wasted a good chance.

Every games look unpredictable. It really depends on the playstyle teams are going to adopt. The favorites aren't a safe bet, because the underdogs which play against them can adopt a totally defensive stance during the match, playing solely for the draw. It results in boring games where nobody scores.
Also, there is the referee factor, which is polemical quite often and ends influencing the result of the game unfairly.
That's why people like them so little, it means their goal is not to win matches but to draw. You are right there is no point in such teams they are just put in and played in this game. Every team thinks that if the match goes out of their reach, instead of winning the match, they think that they will end the match as a draw. If he focuses too much on the players, sometimes the team misses out on goals. I am also well aware of the teams whose performance you are giving them the right to win. The hard work of these teams is really worth it as they deserve this win scale and they will surely keep winning till the end. Also, there is the referee factor, which is polemical quite often and ends influencing the result of the game unfairly.
I'll be more conservative, Criciuma or draw and Cruzeiro win. Today's games aren't that good, I'm not excited to bet on them unfortunately. But the next ones will decide a lot in the table and everything is happening to leave everything for the last round of the championship.
Criciuma have continued their recent inconsistent form. In their last 9 games they have won only 2 times and collected 8 points. They are just above the relegation zone and this match could directly determine their progress in the league. Atletico Goianiense have an important game this week in terms of points. They are bottom of the league and cannot afford to drop any points. With 10 weeks to go, the points difference between them and the safe zone is seven. Therefore, they need a series of victories. Criciuma must win this match to ease their way through the rest of the league. Otherwise they could fall directly into the relegation zone. Atletico Goianiense, on the other hand, have no choice but to win. Both teams have no choice but to win.
I ended up getting the Criciuma one right, but not the Cruzeiro one unfortunately, it was very close, even only one goal from Fluminense, I expected more from them. But Fortaleza wins today's game

But just for fun, let's say the winners are going to be: Fortaleza, Botafogo, Atlético-MG, Palmeiras, Bahia, São Paulo, Corinthians and Vasco.

Corinthians will probably lose and Palmeiras will win... I would also bet on Vasco winning playing at São Januário.
This is probably the best deal in campeonato brasileiro, bet against Corinthians
Only 6 wins in 28 matches, pretty hard to believe
Tomorrow's match maybe it will be a draw since Corinthians will play at home, but I'm not so sure so I will not bet in this one
Fortaleza win is paying 3.85 against Gremio
Maybe this is a good deal since Fortaleza have good chances to continue the good work

In this round 29, the games that interest me the most are Grêmio x Fortaliza, Atlétigo-MG x Vitória, Athlético-PR x Botafogo, Bragantino x Palmeiras and Corinthians x Internacional...
Among these, I'd bet on a win or a draw for Botafogo, who have been winning in a row, a win for Palmeiras or a draw. The rest is uncertain to me. It is still risky to bet on Corinthians, even though they have started playing well in a short time, but it's still too early to say whether the club has really returned to its good form.
I don't know if Botafogo can beat Athletico Paranaense at Arena da Baixada. Athletico usually wins most of its matches when it plays at home, mainly because of the synthetic grass where the ball behaves differently. I would bet on Botafogo losing.
Corinthians will probably lose and Palmeiras will win... I would also bet on Vasco winning playing at São Januário.

Tite has finally been fired from the Flamengo team, after countless embarrassments and failing to get the team to play good football, I only have one thing to say: goodbye.
To replace him, Flamengo promoted former player Filipe Luis, who recently won the world championship with Flamengo's under-20 team. In my opinion, it was a wise decision to promote Filipe Luis, but they took too long to fire Tite, he didn't fit in at all at Flamengo.

I believe that for this season, Flamengo's management will go easy on him in the sense that if he doesn't achieve anything, he won't be fired. But next season he will be under a lot of pressure, the fans and the management will want him to win the Brasileirao. According to what I read, Filipe Luís has a contract until December 2025 and he said that he knows the entire Flamengo squad well. So this is already a big step, it means that he won't have any problems knowing which players are problematic and how to deal with them and how to put all the players in certain positions and what instructions to give them.
But in my opinion, the fact that Flamengo's management has given him a very short contract, something like until December of next year, shows that Flamengo's management is testing him. They want to see if he will be able to achieve something next year and only after he achieves something, will they give him a long-term contract. now he would need to solve the following problems:
1 - Make Flamengo play well, like they did in Jorge Jesus' time
2 - Recover Gabigol and De la Cruz's level of competitiveness
3 - Improve Flamengo's defense
In yesterday's game against Corinthians, it was clear that he is in good command. The players knew how to attack and defend, although at the end of the second half Corinthians almost tied the game. But Flamengo created a lot of opportunities and that's what matters.
Ah, I see, so they take it competitive like this prediction metric, but there are other metrics like the one I mentioned about a team remaining constant or not for a long time, showing that other teams are better at different times, etc. But it's interesting to see, I didn't know about this metric.
An interesting thing to think about:
At the beginning of the championship, if we talk about 10 teams being champions, it's completely plausible.
Before the start, I could say that Corinthians, Sao Paulo, Palmeiras, Flamengo, Botafogo, Fluminense, Cruzeiro, Atlético, Inter, Gremio or Athletico PR could be champions.
In other leagues, like Spain for example, it's practically Real or Barça, in France it's only PSG, in Germany it's Bayern Munich or Leverkusen...
I think this is the main reason to be the most competitive league
this is quite nice to think about but even on this list there are favorites, of course Palmeiras or São Paulo have more chance than Inter
I'm not even that deep into football but if you get the number of trophies by each team and the track record some will probably have a much better chance than others
that's life
