Bahia, Recent FormBahia will not be too troubled by their 2-1 away defeat against Internacional, given the latter currently sit 18 places further up the league table than they do. Their share of possession in that meeting was 48%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Internacional, who had 17 shots on goal with 8 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 games at Arena Fonte Nova.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Goalscorer Ademir Silva Santos Junior will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Bahia.
Fluminense, Recent FormFluminense had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 2-2 draw against Red Bull Bragantino. In that game they recorded 69 % of the possession, with 26 attempts on goal, 11 on target. Their opponents found the target on 8 of their 16 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 10 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Germán Cano will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Fluminense's last 6 league games.
Fluminense suffered the disappointment of a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Bahia the last time they met in the league.
Bahia have managed to keep a clean sheet against Tricolor in each of their previous 2 meetings at Arena Fonte Nova. In their previous 3 encounters with Bahia, Tricolor have shipped at least one goal in those matches.
In the league, Bahia has a good track record when they host Fluminense, getting the better of them in their last 2 home games.
With no real injury worries, Bahia manager Rogério Ceni will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Fernando Diniz has a number of injury concerns in his Fluminense squad to contend with: Lucas Calegari (Cruciate ligament), Marcos Keno (Ankle), Manoel Messias Silva Carvalho (Ankle), Gabriel Pires (Knee) and Marlon Santos da Silva (Knee)
