Round 5 of the Copa do Brasil brings Remo and Bahia together at Estádio Evandro Almeida. On paper, Bahia looks far superior in world ranking and season win rate, but Remo’s Cup run, including a recent 3-1 win over Bahia themselves, injects real unpredictability. Alef Manga (Remo) is the player to watch up front after his outstanding recent form, while Bahia’s Luciano, a defender with a rare goal-scoring knack, poses a set-piece threat.
Hot stat: Remo have netted 11 goals in their last 5 matches – a significant spike for a club with a 29% annual win rate.

Remo vs Bahia prediction
We predict a competitive match with Bahia desperate to respond to their recent 3-1 defeat by Remo. Despite their higher world ranking and greater technical ability, Bahia’s away form is poor and their defense can be breached, as seen by conceding 7 goals in their last 5 games. Remo’s home momentum, highlighted by Alef Manga’s attacking drive and the side’s new-found scoring touch, make them dangerous. Yet, Bahia’s midfield passing strength and experience can’t be dismissed.
Expect a physical contest: both sides average high foul counts (Remo 49, Bahia 74 in last 5) and yellow cards are frequent (Bahia 13, Remo 6), hinting at interruptions and set-piece chances. Bahia attempts almost double the passes of Remo but with a similar pass accuracy (Remo 76%, Bahia 87%). That contrast in styles – Remo’s directness versus Bahia’s ball control – shapes a match that could open up late, especially if Remo scores first and Bahia chases.

Team Analysis
Remo’s last five games highlight a notable improvement. They took points off Palmeiras (1-1) and upset Botafogo (2-1), showing they can frustrate higher-ranked sides. Their last match, a draw with Palmeiras, saw Remo defend deep and strike on the break, with Alef Manga again central to their attack. Their attack comes in surges, but defensive lapses remain a risk, especially late in games when pressed.
Bahia’s recent run is disappointing for a club of their stature. They have managed just one win in six, leaking goals and struggling to convert possession into results. Against Cruzeiro (1-2 loss), Bahia had more of the ball but failed to create clear chances, with Willian José isolated and midfielders forced into speculative shots. Defensive discipline wavers under pressure, reflected in their yellow card tally and set-piece vulnerability.

Market prices reflect Bahia’s historical status and squad value, but Remo’s recent Cup win over them, home advantage, and current form narrow the margin. The lack of explicit odds from bookies points to uncertainty – sharp punters spot value in goals and corners rather than picking a straight winner. TipsGG analysts see Remo’s goal threat and Bahia’s defensive lapses pushing this match towards attacking outcomes.
Possible Starting Lineups
Remo possible starting eleven
- GK: Marcelo Rangel
- DF: Marcelo Rodrigues Souza, Cristian Tassano, Marllon, Mayk Van Van
- MF: José Welison, Ze Ricardo, Patrick Bezerra do Nascimento, Leonel Picco
- FW: Alef Manga, Glaybson Yago Souza Lisboa
Marcelo Rangel provides shot-stopping stability in goal. The defense is anchored by Souza, Tassano, Marllon, and Van Van – all regular starters. Midfield offers balance and distribution, with Welison’s set-piece ability and Picco’s ball recovery. Alef Manga leads the line, fresh from scoring 4 in his last 5, supported by Yago, who adds pace and direct runs. We expect Remo to stick with their effective 4-2-3-1 formation, maximizing counterattack opportunities.
Bahia possible starting eleven
- GK: Léo Vieira
- DF: Gilberto, David Duarte, Luciano, Ramos Mingo
- MF: Éverton Ribeiro, Nicolas Acevedo, Jean Lucas, Caio Alexandre
- FW: Willian José, Erick Luis Conrado Carvalho
Léo Vieira is a fixture in goal. The backline features the consistent Gilberto, Duarte, Luciano (who also scores), and Mingo. Acevedo brings defensive grit, Ribeiro organizes play, Jean Lucas offers energy, and Caio Alexandre provides composure. Willian José remains their best goal threat, with Erick Luis supporting in attack. Bahia’s 4-2-3-1 setup is built for possession but needs sharper finishing; watch Luciano and Willian José for key moments.

TipsGG Match Prediction
We predict goals and a tight contest. Remo’s home form and Alef Manga’s sharpness make them a real threat, even against a technically stronger Bahia. Bahia’s superior passing and squad depth should deliver scoring opportunities, but their discipline issues and away weakness hold them back. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals stand out. If Remo gets an early lead, Bahia will attack in waves, opening up the match for late drama.
