Atletico Mineiro, Recent FormLosing 2-1 home to Flamengo won't leave the Atlético Mineiro squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. In that game they had 39% possession and managed 20 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Flamengo who had 6 attempts and 5 on target.
Having scored 4 goals and conceded 8 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
A win for Atlético Mineiro is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 8 games.
Bahia, Recent FormBahia will have been reasonably pleased with their 0-0 draw against São Paulo, not least because of the valuable point gained. They achieved 37% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against São Paulo's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 10 of which were on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Renato Paiva where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. However, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 7 in the same period. They have failed to score in their last 3 games in a row.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 7 games.
Lucas Mugni will be hoping to create problems for Atlético Mineiro in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Bahia.
It was no surpirise that the last time these two teams met Atlético Mineiro came out on top, winning the match 2-3.
Goals should be on the cards for Atlético in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Tricolor de Aço in their last 5 meetings together.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Atlético has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Bahia in 3 games.
Bahia 2 - 1 Atletico MineiroAtletico Mineiro 2 - 0 BahiaThere is only really one injury concern for the Atlético manager Luiz Felipe Scolari ahead of this clash, with Hyoran Kaue Dalmoro (Ankle) missing out, which gives Scolari a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Bahia manager Renato Paiva with Gabriel Biel (Muscle), David Duarte (Meniscus) and Danilo Fernandes (Thigh) all unavailable for selection, and Kayky da Silva Chagas (Cruciate ligament) out for the rest of the season.
