Currently sitting 4th, Bahia has amassed 29 points from 8 wins, 6 draws, and 3 losses. In their penultimate match, they triumphed over Juventude (3-0) at home. Most recently, they played to a stalemate with Sport Recife (0-0). At home, they have accumulated 20 points and their impressive form at the Fonte Nova Arena includes 6 wins and 2 draws from their last 8 home matches, maintaining an unbeaten streak throughout this period. Defensively, they have conceded goals in 7 of their last 10 fixtures, but have found the net themselves in 7 of those games as well. Historically, they have struggled to overturn a deficit when conceding first, failing to win any of their 4 games in this situation across the competition. Notably, they’ve conceded 7 out of their 17 goals in the final minutes (76′-90′) of their last 20 home matches across all competitions.
Bahia aims to solidify their position within the highly contested top four of the Brazileirão this season. Under the management of Rogério Ceni, the squad has consistently demonstrated a fierce commitment in all matches, irrespective of the venue. With a string of matches without defeat and high morale, they approach this duel confident in their chances of securing maximum points against Fluminense on home soil.
Team analysis: Fluminense
After a record of 7 wins, 2 draws, and 7 losses, the visiting team holds the 9th position with 23 points. In their last fixture, they achieved a crucial 1-0 victory against Grêmio. However, they had previously lost to São Paulo (3-1) in an away match. On home ground, Fluminense has been stronger, acquiring 16 points, compared to just 7 as visitors. Their most recent outing in the Copa do Brazil resulted in a 1-1 draw against Internacional. Over their last 8 league matches, they have recorded 2 wins, 1 draw, and 5 losses, accumulating 7 points from a possible 24. They’ve frequently observed 0-0 scorelines at half-time in their league games, evident in 4 of their 8 matches. Furthermore, their defensive solidity has been lacking, having conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 fixtures, although their attack has been proactive, scoring in 8 of the last 10 matches too. Their away matches tend to yield more than 1.5 goals, with 7 of the last 8 ending with that tally. Out of their 16 matches played so far, they have only managed to come back from a deficit in 2 of the 8 games where they conceded first. They have conceded 7 of their 18 goals in the closing stages (76′-90′) of their last 20 away games across all competitions.
Fluminense has found some relief in the Brazileirão after a shaky start to the season. Following a crucial win against Grêmio, they approach this match in Bahia with the understanding that they must replicate their performance to achieve a positive result, as the season has been inconsistent thus far.
