Bahia host Corinthians in the Brasileiro Série A with Corinthians slight favourites according to CheckLive, who give the visitors a 56% win probability. The signal is medium, so this is no foregone conclusion — both sides have plenty to play for in a tight league contest.
Bahia come into this off a mixed run: a 1-1 draw with Atlético Mineiro, a 2-0 win over Chapecoense, and a 2-1 victory against Botafogo in their most recent Brasileiro fixtures. Corinthians, meanwhile, have won their last two league outings — 3-1 against Grêmio and 1-0 over Atlético Mineiro — though they did lose to Platense in the Libertadores.
The head-to-head record is dead even: seven previous meetings, with three wins each and two draws. The last one, back in January, saw Corinthians edge it 2-1 away. With the form books not offering a clear steer, a draw is a real possibility in what promises to be a tight, competitive match.
