Moreover, Sao Paulo have an upper hand in the recent tradition of this match-up. Therefore, we expect a win for Sao Paulo on Sunday.
Around half of the matches played by these two teams had goals under 2.5 ft. Going on, three of the last six h2h clashes between these two at this stadium were low-scoring. In that case, we don’t expect this match to have goals over 2.5 ft.
Bahia have failed to score in four of the last five league road trips. On the other side, Sao Paulo have a decent defensive line at home. In that case, we don’t expect this match to be a both teams scoring one.
Sao Paulo is likely to seal a win on Sunday considering all these observations. An unimpressive Bahia will add more to the chances for Sao Paulo here.
