Rogério Ceni’s side sit sixth after 18 rounds, collecting 26 points so far. Bahia are particularly formidable at home, having suffered just two defeats on their own turf this season. In recent fixtures, they edged out Botafogo 2-1, drew 1-1 with Grêmio, and narrowly lost 2-3 to Coritiba in a fiercely contested match. Notably, Bahia have found the net in every home league game to date.
However, defensive consistency remains an issue for the Tricolor, who have conceded in 11 consecutive matches - six of them at home. The “both teams to score (yes)” bet has landed in eight of their last outings. Bahia need to be especially alert in the opening half, as they've shipped goals before the interval in five of their previous six matches. During the recent break, the Salvador club played just one friendly, cruising past Uruguay’s Montevideo City with a 4-1 victory.

The return to Serie A has been extremely difficult for Chapecoense. After 18 rounds, the team sits in 20th place with just 9 points. The biggest problems have come away from home: in six league away matches, Chapecoense have suffered five defeats and recorded only one draw. In addition, the team has failed to win 13 of their last 15 away matches across all competitions.
After the defeat to Remo Belém (2:3) in the 16th round, the club’s management parted ways with head coach Fabio Matias and appointed Rafael Lacerda as his replacement, who previously worked with Atlético Goianiense in Serie B. Following the coaching change, the team has become slightly more organized, but consistency is still missing. The main issue remains the defense: in their last three official matches, the Green Team have suffered defeats with an overall score of 1:5. Chapecoense also played a friendly match, where they secured an away victory over Grêmio with a 2:1 scoreline.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Bahia come into this match in a significantly better condition. The hosts continue to fight for a place in the upper part of the table and have been performing confidently on their own ground. The visitors, on the other hand, remain the worst team in the championship in terms of points earned and have looked extremely weak away from home. Considering Bahia’s home statistics, the current form of both teams, and the difference in quality, the most logical option is Bahia to win. The most likely scoreline is 2:1.
