Betting tip and prediction for this match between Fortaleza vs Bahia

The best prediction for Fortaleza vs Bahia in the Brazileirão Serie A is less than 2.5 goals. Both teams are expected to have a tight contest where solid defensive play will be critical to avoiding surprises. As such, we anticipate few clear scoring opportunities, with more emphasis on midfield possession. Hence, a bet on fewer than 2.5 goals seems prudent, as both teams may struggle to breach each other’s defences.

Fortaleza and Bahia will meet at the Horácio Domingos de Sousa Olympic Stadium in a clash of the 15th round of Brazileirão Serie A. Historically, this ground has favoured the home side, who have recorded 2 wins and 2 draws in their last 4 meetings here. However, their previous encounter at this stadium on 03-06-2023 concluded with a 0-0 draw. The home advantage may play a crucial role, considering the significant disparities in performance between home and away for both teams.

Team analysis: Fortaleza

After 2 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses, the home side currently sits in 19th position, having accumulated 10 points. In their last outing, they suffered a defeat to Ceará at home (0-1), following a prior loss against Santos (2-3). Fortaleza shows an increased resilience at home, having secured 5 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses at their ground, while recording only 1 victory, 7 draws, and 7 losses as visitors in their last 30 matches. In the last 7 home fixtures in the league, Fortaleza has managed just 2 wins, 1 draw, and 4 defeats, claiming a mere 7 points from a possible 21. Their defence has been notably vulnerable, as they conceded goals in 7 of their last 10 league matches. This side struggles to score first, having only opened the scoring in 3 of their last 13 outings, winning 2 of those by the final whistle. This season, they have consistently failed to turn around results in 7 occasions when they conceded first.

Fortaleza must improve their home performances to avoid further missteps. They have squandered opportunities in front of their supporters and must rectify the errors that have impacted their campaign in the Brazileirão. Accumulating disappointing stats, they are under pressure to present a stronger performance against Bahia to secure an essential result in this encounter.

Team analysis: Bahia

Currently sitting in 4th place with 24 points from 7 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses, the visiting team is in a strong position. Their penultimate match saw them defeat Bragantino away by a scoreline of 0-3, followed by a home victory against Atlético Mineiro (2-1). Bahia benefits from playing at home, with decent away stats, recording 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses across their last 30 matches as visitors, scoring 17 goals while conceding 14. Conversely, at home, they boast an impressive record of 10 wins, 4 draws, and just 1 loss, with 25 goals scored and 13 conceded. Their recent form shows mixed results, with only 7 points from the last 18 available as they’ve garnered 2 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses in their last 6 away games. However, their attack has been efficient, finding the net in 7 of their last 10 matches in this competition. This side frequently scores first, having opened the scoring in 10 of their last 13 matches, maintaining the lead in 7 of those.

Bahia has demonstrated tactical discipline and has effectively gathered points on the road in the Brazileirão, which has bolstered their progress in the standings. To stay close to the top spots, it is imperative that they secure points against Fortaleza, who are facing significant challenges on the pitch.
