Chapecoense is in last place in the Brazilian championship, having played 17 matches since the start of the season, with only one win and ten losses. It is completely logical that this does not make them a favorite ahead of their visit to Bahia, who is in sixth place in the standings and continues to fight for the top positions.
Traditionally few goals between themBesides being the away team, Chapecoense is experiencing serious difficulties away from home, where they rarely manage to score. Bahia appears to be the more classy and stable team, but interestingly, direct encounters between the two rivals rarely offer many goals. In eight of the last ten matches between them, fewer than 2.5 goals have been scored. After the break in the championship, it is also quite possible that both teams will approach their first match more cautiously.
Prediction: Under 3.5 goalsI expect Bahia to be the more active team and to be closer to the three points, but I do not believe that the match will offer many goals. The statistics from direct encounters and Chapecoense's poor attacking play away from home lead me to lean towards a prediction of under 3.5 goals.
