Bahia Preview – Can Bahia win back-to-back?
A recent 1-0 home win against Botafogo handed Bahia a welcome three points in the Brazilian top flight which helped the hosts up into 14th place in the Serie A table and they’ll be looking to make it back-to-back victories on Wednesday night when Fortaleza come to visit.
Bahia have produced inconsistent results throughout this season so far but their best chance of lifting themselves further up the table appears to be their form on home turf at the Arena Fonte Nova where the hosts possess a home record of 5-1-4 15/13 and includes winning their last three matches on the trot.
Victories over Vasco da Gama 3-0, Atletico Mineiro 3-1 and a 1-0 win against Botafogo should give Bahia plenty of momentum heading into this upcoming clash, along with the fact that Bahia have never been beaten by Fortaleza at home in each of the previous nine encounters.
Fortaleza Preview – Can Fortaleza avoid third defeat on trot?
Although Fortaleza currently sit in 11th place and occupy a spot in the top 12 pack which ultimately leads to qualifying for a Copa Sudamericana spot, the visitors have suffered recent back-to-back defeats which has seen them drop to a mid-table position in Serie A.
Recent losses against Fluminense and Athletico PR have threatened Fortaleza’s position in the top 12 so they’ll be keen to avoid a third defeat on the trot when they make their way to Bahia for this important clash on Wednesday night.
Fortaleza had previously put together a solid looking eight-match unbeaten sequence in the Brazilian top flight which included four wins but it’s worth mentioning that all four of these victories were achieved on home turf at their Estádio Governador Plácido Aderaldo Castelo, while results away from home have been average by comparison; the visitors have failed to win in their last seven away matches.
