Botafogo will be hosting Bahia in the Monday 29th May Brazilian Serie A clash, the third round of matches in the league where both teams will be seeking an edge after losing one of their opening two matches. The hosts will particularly be seeking a win to stabilize things after picking just two wins and three losses in their last five outings. Their last five matches at home have yielded four wins and a loss, with the team scoring eight goals and conceding four. They have lost just twice at home in their last 10 encounters and will be heavily banking on this. Bahia, on the other hand have won two, lost once and drawn twice in their last five matches. Playing away from home has not offered them the best of hunting grounds with just one win, two losses and two draws in their last five matches, scoring six and conceding five. They have lost four of their last 10 away matches and one thing they will bank on is their impressive run against Botafogo, of three wins in the teams’ last five meetings. Head to head, the two sides have met 13 times and Botafogo have won four times with Bahia winning six.

Our Botafogo vs Bahia Prediction

Botafogo have always been the underdogs in this fixture but heading into this game, they picked a slim win the last time the two sides met and will want to capitalize on that and the fact that Bahia have not beaten them in the last two meetings. While Bahia have struggled away from home lately, Botafogo have been in great form at home and this could play a role in the game. The hosts head to the game in better form and a bet on them winning would be a wise one.
