The emotions of the 2023 Brasileirão season continue, and the teams are reaching the halfway point of the championship, so from now on, every victory becomes vital for the aspirations of each of them.
For now, Botafogo continues to lead the general classification table with a 12-point difference concerning Flamengo and Palmeiras, the teams that follow them in the standings. However, there is only a three-point difference between second and sixth place, so there could be a lot of movement this weekend.
The season has been extremely balanced, and although Botafogo seems to be a step above its rivals, any of the teams can win a match, that’s the great thing about this Brasileirão.
When:
Sunday, August 6 at 03:00 PM ET at Estadio Sao Januário
Moneyline odds:
Vasco +185
Grêmio +150

Where can I Watch it?
Why Bet on Vasco da Gama?
Vasco da Gama is currently the worst team in the Brasileirão, as they have a terrible record of 2 wins, 3 draws, and 11 defeats in 16 matches played.
In addition, the team has only scored 12 goals, conceding as many as 28. Although it is not the highest number in the tournament, the team needs a miracle to get out of the bad moment and out of the last place in the table.
The Cruz Maltes come into this matchday with the firm conviction of cutting the streak of four consecutive defeats. However, despite playing at home, this seems unlikely, as Grêmio has been playing at a high level throughout the season.
As we mentioned, Vasco is coming from losing four consecutive matches, the last being against Corinthians by 1-3.
Why Bet on the Grêmio?
On the other hand, we have Grêmio, a team that has had a great 2023 season in the Brasileirão so far and who needs to get back to winning ways to continue its fight for second place in the table.
They currently sit in fourth place in the tournament’s overall standings, with 9 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses. The Tricolor Gaúcho is only one point behind Flamengo and Palmeiras in second place, so they could be in the TOP 2 of the table for the 19th matchday of the Brasileirão.
However, Grêmio has not been consistent in the last matches played, as they have all possible results in the three previous presentations. Although, their 1-1 draw against Goiás away last matchday may be good considering how difficult it is to get away points in the Brasileirão.
Final Betting Analysis: Vasco da Gama vs. Grêmio
In the last 20 matches between these two teams, Grêmio dominates the series with 10 wins. On the other hand, Vasco da Gama has managed to score only 4 victories, while 6 matches have ended with a draw.
Moreover, the last match between them was last September 11, 2022, which ended with a 2-1 victory for Grêmio.
At MyBookie.ag, there is a Moneyline that favors Grêmio at +150, while Vasco starts at +185.
Vasco may have some home advantage, but, being the worst team in the Brasileirão so far this season, it makes us think that Grêmio has everything to win. Therefore, our prediction is a 2-0 win for them.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline Grêmio. If you put $100 on Grêmio at +150, you’ll see a $150 gain with a total payout of $250.
