Bahia
A relatively modest team by local standards, Bahia, which finished last season in 16th place, has been a pleasant surprise this season. After 11 rounds, Bahia sits in third place, which is a significant achievement for them. In 11 matches, Bahia has garnered 21 points: 6 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses. They are only three points behind leaders Flamengo.
Under the leadership of Rogério Ceni, Bahia has been particularly successful at their home stadium this season, winning all 5 home matches so far. In the previous round, they convincingly defeated Cruzeiro 4-1. Before that, they had a 2-1 loss to Flamengo and a 2-2 away draw against Criciúma. In their last five matches, Bahia has collected 8 points: 2 wins and 2 draws.
Vasco da Gama
Vasco is having a much tougher season compared to Bahia. The "Admirals" are in 15th place, having earned 10 points in 11 matches: 3 wins, 1 draw, and 7 losses. They are only one point clear of Vitória, who are in the relegation zone.
In the previous round, Vasco da Gama pulled off one of the biggest surprises of the season by defeating São Paulo 4-1. This victory was their first in the last 10 matches. Before the match against São Paulo, Vasco lost away to modest Juventude 0-2.
