🔮
Prediction
We’re thinking that São Bernardo may find it difficult to be putting a goal past this Athletic Club lineup who we reckon should score at least once to gain the upper hand.
We’re therefore tipping a very even match with a 1-0 winning margin for Athletic Club when the referee blows for full-time.
Will be interesting to see how this one goes.
