Meetings between these two teams usually end up close and always produce goals, especially the most recent one when Bahia hosted Santos and drew 2-2 last April. This time both are in the closing stretch of the season and very close on points in the table, so it is a game where a single point matters to both sides. Santos return home after a 2-1 win in their last match, but the overall picture over the last five games is wins alternating with draws and defeats, and the defence still has spells where it loses focus. Bahia lost their last match but before that had just won 1-0 at home, and across the season they have collected points a little more consistently with a better goal difference. This game should play out as a midfield exchange with each side having its spells on the ball. Santos will control possession a bit more at home, but Bahia have the counter-attacking moments that keep the game unsettled, and it is likely to finish without much separating the sides.
