Team News

Bahia
Corinthians
  • Wholesale changes are unlikely after the draw with Botafogo.
  • Vinícius may be hoping for a start after scoring off the bench in that game.
  • New signing Gilberto will only make his debut after the World Cup.
  • Osmar Loss has so many absentees that the starting XI almost picks itself.
  • Four players are away with their countries, and there are a number of injuries.
  • Pedro Henrique should get a start at the back, with Roger continuing in attack.

Prediction

  • If Corinthians fail to win this game, it's likely that they'll spend the World Cup looking for a new coach, unfortunately for Osmar Loss.
  • The 0-0 draw with Vitória was the latest frustrating result for the new manager, who will be well aware of the growing pressure on him.
  • Bahia got some reaction after the sacking of Guto Ferreira: they couldn't beat Botafogo, but showed impressive grit to rescue a draw at the death.
