Corinthians failed to reach the group stage of the Copa Libertadores and now it will be interesting to see if Memphis Depay and company will show more in their first match of the season in the Brazilian Serie A. They are away against Bahia.
Home team with more success
On the other hand, Bahia managed to secure a place in the groups of the most prestigious international tournament on the South American continent and will try to prove that the strong last season was not accidental. Home advantage in Brazil is usually important, and Bahia is not a weak team in any way. Corinthians are still an enigma to me, so I am not ready to trust Depay and company in a match away from home in the first round of the season.
Bet on Bahia to win
I think the home team will take the points.
