Botafogo host Bahia in Serie A on Sunday morning at Estádio Nilton Santos. There is little to choose between them at Estádio Nilton Santos, where the last two meetings produced one home win, no draws and one away win.
Botafogo have gone W7 D6 L4 in home games, scoring 1.6 goals a game. They have 42 points from 34 league games (W11 D9 L14), with 46 scored and 53 let in. In all competitions the hosts have gone W2 D1 L2 in the last five, and won 1–0 at home to Atlético Mineiro in their latest game.
This season Bahia have 14 wins, 11 draws and nine defeats from 34 league matches, a goal difference of +5. Recent form is mixed, with two wins, one draw and two defeats in the last five; the visitors lost 3–2 away at Cruzeiro last time out. Away from home, they have won six of 17, scoring 24 and conceding 26.
A 2–1 win for Botafogo is the AI's most likely score, and it expects both teams to score. That fits the season so far: both teams have found the net in most of either side's league games.
