National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Bahia or Globo that keep their silverware dream alive.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1100 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

It's no vacation for neither Bahia nor Globo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Bahia form and stats

Last season their Copa do Nordeste adventure ended in the final against Ceará.

The story so far in the Serie A for Bahia at their home stadium (Arena Fonte Nova) is 8 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats.

The Bahia crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Barcelona BA here at Arena Fonte Nova.

Prior to that, an away loss at Atlético Alagoinhas in the Copa do Nordeste.

Bahia are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found five matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won three, drew one and lost one.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Bahia as they have a new game in only four days, a Copa do Nordeste match thankfully also at home. CSA are visiting.

The Bahia fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 27 in 19 matches. On the other hand, Bahia have conceded 22 goals.
