How can Bahia qualify for the Libertadores?
Even with the same score as Corinthians, Bahia has an advantage: the number of victories. It's 14 against 13.
If they beat Corinthians, Rogério Ceni's team will reach 15 victories. In this way, it guarantees at least eighth position, which already qualifies for the pre-Libertadores.
However, Bahia still has the last round as a possibility. In the last clash for the Brasileirão, the team faces relegated Atlético-GO. The top six in the Brazilian Championship qualify directly for the group stage. Meanwhile, the other two teams play in the preliminary phase of the competition.
