Bahia form and stats

The Serie A stats playing at home this season for Bahia are 6-4-5 (wins-draws-losses).

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 193 minutes without scoring a league goal. Rossi was the last player to find the net.

In their previous game, the manager A. Ferreira led his Bahia to a defeat in the Serie A match away at Sport Recife. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Arena Fonte Nova. Defender Nino Paraíba got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.64/10. Paraíba hit one key pass and won 6 of 9 duels.

Prior to that, an away loss at Flamengo.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Bahia's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played six games, won three matches, drawn zero and lost three.

Bahia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 20 goals in 15 games. On the other hand, Bahia have conceded 18 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Cuiabá form and stats

3-9-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Cuiabá in their Serie A matches away. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Cuiabá are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Élton scored in Cuiabá's previous match, the home game against Internacional that ended 1-0. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. de Amorim Campos when Élton scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 62nd minute. Paulão, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.91. Paulão hit one key pass and won 5 of 9 duels.

Preceding that game, the 2-3 loss visiting Corinthians's place.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Cuiabá playing away, we found four games. Results were zero away wins, two draws and two home wins.

The visitors have scored 15 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's not easy to score on Cuiabá as they have only conceded 15 goals from these away games.
