Chapecoense AF face Bahia on Sunday, Aug 16 at 5:00 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the Serie A, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.

Chapecoense AF come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 4L in last 5). Bahia, meanwhile, arrive out of form (0W 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

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

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Chapecoense AF win or a draw looks most likely.
