Bahia, Recent FormLosing 1-0 away to Gremio won't leave the Bahia squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. During that encounter they had 59% possession and had 19 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 3 of their 7 shots on goal.
Rogério Ceni will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 4 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 5 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. At home this season, they have scored in 14 of their 15 home games and notched up 6 clean sheets.
Winning 4 and being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 league games at Arena Fonte Nova, marks a good spell of home form for Bahia.
Cuiaba, Recent FormCuiaba had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 0-0 draw against Santos. They achieved 40% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 0 hitting the target, up against Santos' tally of 4 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager António Oliveira will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 4 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Playing away from home, they're currenlty on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets.
Their form away from home has been of some concern, having recorded just 2 wins and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches on the road.
On an individual basis, Raniele Almeida Melo will be looking to cause Bahia some problems having scored 2 goals in Cuiaba's last 6 away games in the league.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 3 occasions that these 2 sides have met in the league, but Bahia hold a slight psychological advantage of being unbeaten in their last 3 meetings.
With only Kayky da Silva Chagas (Cruciate ligament) and Raul Gustavo (Thigh) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Rogério Ceni will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Cuiaba manager António Oliveira ahead of this clash, with Lucas Mineiro (Thigh) missing out, which gives Oliveira a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
