The Brazilian Championship is in full swing. Bahia and Santos face off this Sunday at 4 PM (Brasília time) at Arena Fonte Nova for the 21st round of the national tournament.
Where to watch: Premiere and Globoplay will broadcast the match.
Despite the official announcement of Juan Pablo Vojvoda, the coach of Peixe for the match will be Matheus Bachi, who remains on the staff after Cleber Xavier's departure. The now permanent assistant coach of the club still has two uncertainties for the clash: the presence of defender João Basso and midfielder Willian Arão, as they are still following the physical transition schedule.
A definite absence is Neymar. The number 10 received his third yellow card in the defeat against Vasco last Sunday and will have to serve a suspension. The expectation is that Rollheiser will take the attacker's place in the starting lineup. The Alvinegro Praiano is trying to pick up the pieces after the heavy defeat. The team is in 15th place in the standings, with 21 points, and is threatened by the relegation zone.
Bahia arrives in good form. Rogério Ceni's team hasn't lost in seven games, winning three and drawing four. Last Wednesday, the Tricolor de Aço defeated Ceará and qualified for the final of the Copa do Nordeste, where they will face Confiança in pursuit of their fifth championship.
