Fluminense will continue their fight to stay in the Brazilian top flight when they host Bahia on Sunday evening.
The hosts may be in the relegation zone but their recent form has been very good. Mano Menezes' side go into this weekend's clash on a four-game unbeaten run in the league and registered three wins in that time. That run has lifted the Warriors off the bottom of the table and a win this weekend could see them move out of the bottom four.
Bahia are a much-improved side this term. The visitors are currently unbeaten in three games in all competitions, and inspiringly, they have come from behind to draw in two of those encounters.
Fluminense vs. Bahia Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
One of the main reasons Fluminense are in the relegation zone is their inability to score goals. The hosts scored two or more goals in just one of their last fourteen matches and failed to score in almost half of their home games in that time.
Bahia have not had much luck in front of goal either. The visitors haven't scored more than once in their last five matches and their last four all ended with two goals or fewer.
Another reason to expect a tight contest is the fact that Fluminense-Bahia encounters at this venue are not known for their entertaining nature. Only one of the last eight has produced more than two goals.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Fluminense vs Bahia prediction: 1-1
