Ketlen Vieira vs. Miesha Tate Prediction and Odds

UFC Fight Night 198 is set to take place this weekend and a women's bantamweight bout between Ketlen Vieira and Miesha Tate will serve as the main event.

Tate, a former Strikeforce and UFC champion, made her return to the octagon in July of this year after a five year hiatus from the sport. Her return was a triumphant one, as she defeated Marion Reneau via TKO in the third round. She'll look to win her second straight fight this weekend against Vieira.

Vieira will try to get back in the win column against Tate. She's dropped two of her last three fights, with the latest coming against Yana Kunitskaya back in February of this year.

Here are the odds for both the main card and prelims via WynnBET Sportsbook.

Miesha Tate vs. Ketlen Vieira Prediction and Pick

Despite Miesha Tate being one of the original female MMA fighters, having a long a successful career, retiring, and then returning five years later, you might be surprised to find out she's only 35 years old. Which, by MMA standards, means she still has some fight left. Hell, Glover Teixeira just won the light heavyweight championship at 42.

I was extremely impressed by how Tate looked in her return fight against Marion Reneau. It's rare for a fighter to take off an extended period of time, and then come back looking even better than before. Meanwhile, Vieira has lost two of her last three fights and she missed weight in her bout against Kunitskaya.

That's a sign of an unmotivated fighter.

I'll back Tate as a slight underdog to improve her record to 2-0 since un-retiring from the sport.

Pick: Miesha Tate +100
