Coritiba vs Bahia Prediction and Betting Tips

Seeking to snap their five-match losing streak, Coritiba host Bahia at the Couto Pereira Stadium in round 23 of the Brasileiro Serie A on Thursday (September 14).

Coritiba were left empty handed once again, as they fell to a 3-1 defeat to Fortaleza in their last outing before the international break. The Verdão have now lost five straight games since a 2-0 win over Fluminense on July 24.

With 14 points from 22 games, Coritiba are rooted to the bottom of the stndings, eight points away from safety.
