Bahia desperately need points on Sunday, Jul 26 at 5:00 PM in the Serie A. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Bahia come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Corinthians, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 0D 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Bahia head into this on the back of a defeat, while Corinthians arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Bahia and Corinthians have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (4W–3D–3W). Their last encounter ended in Corinthians won 1–2.

Verdict: Corinthians's quality should tell even on the road. Bahia will push, but the visitors have too much class. Corinthians to win.
