Match Preview
In the upcoming Copa Sudamericana clash, Bahia hosts América de Cali at the Arena Fonte Nova in Salvador on July 16. Bahia enters the match with a solid run of form, having gone unbeaten in their last five games, with three wins and two draws. In contrast, América de Cali has struggled recently, managing only one win in their last five fixtures, which includes three losses. This disparity in form suggests that Bahia will be the more confident side heading into the match.
A notable aspect of this encounter is the historical head-to-head record, which heavily favours Bahia. In their last ten meetings, Bahia has secured one win and drawn once, while América has failed to register a victory. Furthermore, none of these matches have seen over 2.5 goals or both teams scoring, indicating a tendency for low-scoring affairs. Given Bahia's current form and the historical context, they are likely to dominate possession and create more chances, making them the favourites to secure a win. The odds reflect this, with Bahia priced at 1.52 to win.
