RB Bragantino — Gremio : Match Preview and Prediction for October 05,2025

RB Bragantino’s Current Struggles

RB Bragantino is currently in a severe slump. The team hasn’t secured a victory in their last five league matches, recording three draws and two defeats. ‘Massa Bruta’ last claimed three points as far back as August 23rd, indicating a noticeable lack of confidence within the squad.

Home Form Has Faltered

Their home stadium, once a fortress, has lost its intimidating aura. The recent trend is stark: Bragantino has failed to win in seven of their last eight home fixtures. Furthermore, their defense is in disarray, conceding 10 goals in their last five home league matches, making them the league’s worst performers defensively on their own turf during this period.

Squad Challenges for Bragantino

Compounding their struggles are significant personnel issues. While midfielders Fabinho and key player John John return from suspension, another vital central midfielder, Gabriel, is sidelined due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Adding to the concern, forward Eduardo Sasha’s participation in the upcoming match is uncertain, and primary defender Eduardo Santos along with striker Isidro Pitta are currently injured.

Gremio’s Impressive Run

In stark contrast, Grêmio is currently in excellent form. The team is on an impressive four-match unbeaten streak, comprising two wins and two draws. Mano Menezes’ side has remained undefeated since September 13th, a commendable achievement given their challenging fixture list.

Away Game Resilience

The ‘Tricolor’s’ resilience away from home is particularly noteworthy. In their most recent fixture, they held firm against Santos, securing a 1-1 draw, largely thanks to goalkeeper Gabriel Grando’s six crucial saves. Statistics underscore their tenacity on the road, with Grêmio avoiding defeat in four of their last five away encounters.

Defensive Boost for Gremio

Despite facing a series of player absences, there is positive news on the injury front. Two defensive stalwarts, experienced defenders Marcos Rocha and Walter Kannemann, are set to return after being under medical observation. Their reintegration will undoubtedly bolster the team’s defensive solidity, which has already managed to secure results even without them.
