Serie A is back in action, and this is a game where both Bahia and São Paulo need points to move up the table. Bahia are already sitting 7th, while São Paulo follow in 9th, seven points apart in a table where both have played 32 matches. Both teams' most recent games ended without defeat: Bahia drew 1-1 with Santos in Serie A on 25 Oct, while São Paulo also drew 1-1 with Mirassol in Serie A on 24 Oct. Bahia return home after losing 0-3 to Flamengo in Serie A on 18 Oct, but before that they had just beaten Mirassol 1-0 in Serie A on 12 Oct. São Paulo, meanwhile, won two home games in a row before being held to a draw. Both teams' defences have spells where they switch off in similar ways, with São Paulo conceding 28% of their goals between minutes 76-90, which is also the period in which they score the most. This game is likely to be open from the start. Bahia are at home and should have slightly more of the ball, but São Paulo carry a dangerous counter-attack and often finish games strongly in the closing stages. The first half may be a period where both sides feel each other out, while the second half should open up more and produce goals.
