Brazil Serie A Betting

Brazilian clubs dominate the football scene on the South American continent, having won five of the last 10 Copa Libertadores. This year, for the 2021 final, Flamengo and Palmeiras will compete for the continental title on November 20, 2021, in Uruguay.

Despite the controversy about the excessive costs of 11 new or rebuilt stadiums, the 2014 World Cup when Brazil lost 7-1 to Germany, it seems to have had a reasonably positive impact on the Brasileirão championship or, at least, on the economic growth of Brazilian football. Structurally, Brazilian soccer remains heavily indebted, which leads to the massive exodus of young, future stars to Europe. They only come back to the country, after 30 years, to finish their career.

For the 2021 season, we are heading in the Brazilian championship to a mano-a-mano between Flamengo and Atletico MG. It will be very competitive, especially with all the titles at stake - the Brasileirão championship and the Brazilian Cup, not forgetting the Libertadores final for Flamengo. On the other hand, Atletico MG is in the Sudamericana final against RB Bragantino, another Brazilian team.

A big step for teams wanting to escape the CBF insight

Currently, Serie A is controlled by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), making the country one of the few major football nations where the national federation oversees the national league structure.

The clubs want to break away from the CBF's structures and establish a new league governing body to run the Serie a, ensuring greater influence over how the game runs in Brazil.

Although a tie-up has long been mooted, plans took a big step forward on June 15, when 19 of the 20 Serie A clubs submitted a document to the CBF indicating their intention to create a new league structure. The CBF has often been accused of giving priority to the national team over the years. Incidentally, Brazil is leading the World Cup qualifiers in the Conmebol zone.

Betting on the Brasileiro Serie A 2021

Brasileirão, defending champions Flamengo are ten points behind Atlético MG. But, with two games in hand, the championship could be on the cards at the end of the season. Bettors are convinced that the future champion will come from these two teams.

There is also a good chance these two teams will be in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil.

Recommended betting on the Brazilian championship

Since the beginning of the season, 40% of the games have not seen either team score before halftime. Smart bettors will bet the most after the break.
