The Triclor Paulista have been down on their luck in the last five league appearances, with only one win and four losses. High expectations were expected from the side after the 3-2 loss against Palmeiras, a game that saw the team strive towards parity, but was disappointed by the clock. The subsequent games, instead, were a total letdown, with a 2-0 away loss against Gremio and a 3-0 humiliation against the dark horses of the league, Mirassol FC.
Despite the overall mediocrity exuded by the side, their home performance records seven wins, three stalemates, and four losses. In twenty-eight league appearances, Sao Paulo has won ten matches, lost eleven, and managed eight draws.
Hernan Crespo, begrudged from the Round 11’s 2-1 loss in May, will seek to even things out and make bold statements, now that he possesses home-field advantage
🏁 São Paulo: Lineup
Hernan Crespo’s plays today without many of his best men. His squad, riddled with injuries, has eight players out due to medical worries. A few faces are familiar, but Cedric Soares, Andre Silva, Luan Santos, and a host of others who would have had substantial contributions can not play, nd the 3-4-1-2 lineup casts doubts on the minds of the fans who wonder if attack should be the way forward in dire cases as this.
🔖 Predicted Lineup (3-4-1-2): Rafael, Franco-Arboleda-Sabino, Diaz-Maia-Bobadila-Mailton, Antonio, Tapia-Moura
👤 Head Coach: Hernan Crespo
⛔ Out: Injury-Luan Santos, Ryan Francisco, Oscar, Andre Silva, Cedric Soares, Jonathan Calleri, Wendel, Leandro Mathias. Doubtful- Juan Dineno, Rafeal Toloi. Suspended- Nahuel Ferraresi

Momentum is blazing in the Bahianos camp, with the side sizzling off two recent victories against Gremio (4-0) and Internacional (1-0). In the last five league appearances, they have taken three bold victories, staying shy with two losses. Against Internacional, the two sides nearly canceled each other out, but Willian Jose set the pace, six minutes into injury time, scoring the only goal of the game - despite numerous close calls.
Over the last fourteen traveling fixtures, they have taken three wins and four stalemates. The last four games away from the Fonte Nova Arena have been catastrophic, with three flat-out losses and one stalemate.
🏁 Bahia: Lineup
Rogerio Ceni has done a fine job with the side, permutating lineups with the level of aggression expected from the opposition. Although the 4-3-3 against Gremio worked wonders, he had a change against Internacional with the 4-2-3-1, which he repeats today against Sao Paulo. Willian Jose, scorer of the two goals in the previous meeting, and a consistent scorer for Bahia in the last three weeks, will have all attention on him.
🔖 Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Ronaldo, Juba-Mingo-Xavier-Gilberto, Lucas-Acevedo,Souza-Araujo-Ademir, W.Jose
👤 Head Coach: Rogerio Ceni
⛔ Out: Caio Alexandre, Erik Pulga, Everton

The tricolor Paulista has a long history against Bahia, but recent statistical showings indicate probable superiority for the visitors. The Bahianos took an early lead in Round 11, finishing off with a 2-1 scoreline. In recent games, they have shown gusto, scoring in nine games in a row.
The São Paulo squad is plagued with injuries, with eight names missing from the first team - the majority being big steppers. Hernan Crespo will hope on the familiarity of the pitch to weather the storm.
