Bahia rank 16 with 13 points to their name from 15 matches, while visitors Corinthians rank 15 in the table on 15 points.

Bahia vs Corinthians Prediction

Bahia Form

In the previous three games, Bahia drew 1-1 with Cuiaba, lost 1-1 against Gremio and 2-0 against Athletico Paranaense. In their last six Serie A home matches, Bahia have two wins, while they've drawn two and lost two. They scored ten and conceded nine goals.

Corinthians Form

Results have been up and down for Corinthians, who beat Liverpool FC by 3-0. Following that up proved too difficult, as they lost 0-1 against Red Bull Bragantino, before claiming three points in a 0-1 win against Atletico MG. Corinthians, meanwhile, won twice, while they've drawn zero and lost four in their last six away in the Serie A.

Bahia find it tough these days to get a goal in, but Corinthians are equally lacklustre in front of goal currently, and going with under 2.5 goals in the betting market is the obvious choice.

Bahia won seven points from their last three encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won two, scored five and let in two goals. Corinthians earned zero wins and zero points from their past two matches against teams placed in the bottom six of the Serie A table. They scored one and allowed five goals against on their way. Bahia are looking at a record of three wins, four draws and eight defeats in the Serie A this season. Corinthians show off four wins, three draws and seven defeats in the Serie A.
