Santos - Bahia Prediction, Picks and Tips
Santos only won 1 of the 4 recent days at Brasileirao and was practically out of the race to reach the title. Even he could only score in the aforementioned match he won, 2-1 to Ceará who struggles to stay in the category. The ‘peixe’ comes from matching 0-0 with Corinthians and losing 2-0 with an Atlético Mineiro that was dragging a terrible negative streak.
For now, the Paulistas have three consecutive wins playing in Vilha Belmiro: CSA (2-0), Palmeiras (2-0) and Ceará (2-1). Its objective is to keep the quota directly to the next Copa Libertadores. Bahia, on the other hand, fell out of the fight to reach a ticket to said continental contest. He lost 3 of the last 4 dates and must now be content to re-qualify for the South American. The ‘tricolor’ team was strong at home but it just comes from two straight losses at home, against Ceará and Inter, showing their worst defensive version.
The defender Gustavo Henrique scored in the last two wins of Santos. In his recent three defeats Bahia received 2 or more goals. The last 12 league matches of Santos had less than 3.5 goals. Last July Bahia lost at home against Santos 0-1, Sanchez's goal at 87 minutes.
