Bahia - Goiás: Serie A basement dwellers scrapping for points and glory. Here are all the interesting numbers and news before the fixture!
- All of Bahia's home-matches have had more than 2,5 goals.
- Goiás have the fewest scored goals (0) away in Serie A
Goiás 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.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Bahia and Goiás.
Bahia form and stats
Bahia have played three Serie A home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
The Bahia coach Paiva and his side return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Santos in the Copa do Brasil. Rezende (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.32/10. Rezende dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 20 successful passes (of 22 total).
Preceding that match was a Serie A defeat to Flamengo (2-3).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 7 games, won 7 matches, drawn 0 and lost 0.
Early season league goal statistics from Bahia's 3 home games: {6 goals}, 6 conceded.
Goiás form and stats

A quick return to home after this game, as Goiás are hosting Universitario in the Copa Sudamericana only three days away.
