On Thursday morning, the Brazilian Serie A continued to be a battle, with Atlético Paranaense playing at home against Bahia. Atlético Paranaense has not been stable recently, especially in the last three league home games without a single win, while Bahia has also suffered three consecutive away defeats in the league, and the team's away combat effectiveness is seriously insufficient. As a result, with neither side having a sure win, a draw is inevitable.
Parana Sports had a comeback in the last round of the league. They were one goal behind, but thanks to Zulima and L. Di Iorio , they finally beat Goianense 2-1 and got back on track. However, it should be pointed out that Parana Sports' recent performance is actually quite satisfactory. They have only 2 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in the last 7 league rounds, and have not won any consecutive games during this period. At the same time, they have not won any of the last 3 home league games. These data show that Parana Sports' state is not stable, especially when playing at home. Facing Bahia, Parana Sports should still make it their top priority to keep their team from losing. In terms of lineup, defender and forward Augustin Canubbio are absent for different reasons.
Judging from the current standings, Bahia and Parana Sports are very close in ranking, with the former ranking fifth in the league with 27 points and the latter following closely with 25 points. It can be seen that the overall performance of the two teams this season is almost the same. However, it should be pointed out that Bahia's away record in the league this season is quite bad. Only 6 of their current 27 points are earned away from home, and their away win rate of 12.5% ranks at the bottom of the league. In addition, Bahia has also suffered a complete defeat in the past 3 rounds of away games. How can such a low away combat effectiveness be reassuring? Even if they are facing Parana Sports, which has not been in stable form recently, it is a relief that Bahia can get out of this unscathed. In terms of lineup, defender Sindiago game for the country; midfielder N. Eswado will be sidelined due to injury.
