This could be an interesting match as Bahia have their presumed home advantage while São Paulo are ahead 2 points in the Serie A table.

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 São Paulo.

São Paulo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
