Bahia vs Fluminense Preview & Prediction 05 Dec 2021

Fluminense know they are in for a difficult trip to Bahia and their Arena Fonte Nova. This news article has all the knowledge you require before the match.

Insights:

Bahia have the most conceded goals in the second half (35) in Serie A
Fluminense have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

These are full days for the home side, as they had a match only three days ago in the Serie A. Thankfully the previous game, versus Atlético Mineiro, was also a home game here at Arena Fonte Nova. The away team is better rested.

Fluminense have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1600 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Bahia are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Fluminense are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

Bahia form and stats

7-5-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Serie A numbers at home for Bahia so far this season.

The Bahia crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 2-3 to Atlético Mineiro here at Arena Fonte Nova in a Serie A match. A disaster for the home team in their last match (vs Atlético Mineiro) as a comfortable lead 2-0 was completely ruined into a loss 2-3. Danilo Fernandes had a busy but productive day in the Atlético Mineiro match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented. The forward Gilberto bettered all teammates in that match and received a match rating of 7.63 out of 10. Gilberto scored one goal, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Atletico GO (1-2).

There will be little rest for Bahia after this match as they are travelling to Fortaleza for a Serie A game in only four days.

Bahia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 25 goals in 18 games. Bahia have conceded 22 in these home matches.

Fluminense form and stats

Fluminense have only collected 16 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 4-4-10 (18 played). A depressing five defeats in a row for Fluminense in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Atletico PR.

There might be some fixture complaints from Fluminense as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Serie A match against Atlético Mineiro (1-2). Midfield player Wellington was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.05/10. Wellington hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 43 successful passes (of 52 total).

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Internacional.

A new game in only four days for Fluminense, the Serie A home match versus Chapecoense. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 18 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Fluminense have seen the ball go into their own net 22 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other already this season, with the result Fluminense - Bahia 2-0 logged in the official records. Data for the former ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Bahia, four draws and four wins for Fluminense. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: nine games.
