The visitors of the upcoming match are in the 12th position of the standings with 12 points. Juventude is in the qualification zone of Copa Sudamericana, lagging four points behind the nearest opponent from the zone of direct promotion to Copa Libertadores. The performance of the Greens in attack and defense is seven goals scored and eleven goals conceded. The last ten matches of Juventude ended in three victories, three draws, and four defeats. In recent rounds, the Greens lost to Ceara (2-0) and Palmeiras (0-3), defeated Gremio (2-0) and Flamengo (1-0), and tied against America Mineiro (1-1). Juventude has not gained victories in nine away matches in a row.
The history of head-to-head confrontations of these teams has only nine matches. They ended in three victories of Bahia, three wins of Juventude, and three draws. The last time the opponents crossed paths on the pitch of Juventude was in the 2009/2010 season. Then the hosts lost to Bahia with a minimum score of 0-1. As we can see, these opponents have gained an equal number of victories in previous head-to-head matches. However, the teams have not met on the same field for more than 10 years, and now Bahia shows more successful results. Beyond that, the Tricolors will play at their native stadium, which will give them an additional advantage. We expect the home team to win the upcoming game.
Prediction for the match: Bahia to win
