---------------------------------
Team Analysis
In this second leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals, Fluminense will face Bahia at home. Bahia holds a 1-0 aggregate lead from the first leg, putting significant pressure on Fluminense. However, Fluminense has a strong home record, having won their last five home matches against Bahia while conceding only one goal. This team is skilled at controlling the pace of the game at home, using precise passing and movement to break through the opponent's defense.
Bahia has remained undefeated in the Copa do Brasil this season and possesses a very resilient defense. Although they face a tough challenge on the road against Fluminense, they will rely on their first-leg advantage and solid defense to secure a spot in the next round.
Player Status
Fluminense will be without player Samuel Xavier due to injury, which could impact their defensive line. However, key player Gilberto has been outstanding on offense, and his ability to dribble and shoot will be crucial for Fluminense's comeback. On the Bahia side, star forward Lucho Rodríguez is reportedly in the process of a transfer and may be absent from this match, which would be a major blow to their attack.
Nowgoal Prediction
Despite the first-leg loss, Fluminense's home-field advantage cannot be underestimated. With the support of their fans, they will push hard for a comeback. While Bahia has the aggregate lead, the potential absence of Lucho Rodríguez will weaken their counter-attacking capabilities. It is expected that Fluminense will win the match at home and level the aggregate score, ultimately advancing after a tense penalty shootout.
