✍️ Match Preview
Match Analysis
Palmeiras host Bahia at Allianz Parque in Serie A (matchday 15). Kick-off is Sunday 7 July 2024 at 23:30 UK time.
Form Guide
Palmeiras — last 10 games: 7W 1D 2L, averaging 2.20 points per game. Last five: W W L W D. Offensively they are averaging 1.90 goals per game, with 1.00 conceded. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base.
In front of their own supporters, Palmeiras have posted 7W 1D 2L from their last 10 home games — 2.20 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 0.50 conceded per game. 6 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home. At home, both teams have scored in only 20% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle.
Across their last 10 games, Bahia have recorded 6W 2D 2L — 2.00 PPG. Last five: L W W L W. They are scoring at 1.70 per game and conceding 1.10. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Bahia away from home: 2W 3D 5L from their last 10 away games — 0.90 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.70 goals scored and 1.80 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 90% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 0.90 is notably below their overall 2.00 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Palmeiras 2.20 PPG, Bahia 2.00 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
H2H Record
The H2H picture is flat: the 4 H2H matches we hold have produced 2 wins for Palmeiras, 1 for Bahia and 1 draw. Form and model data should carry more weight here.
The 4 H2H matches in our data have been tight, averaging just 1.8 goals per game — a meaningful input for the Under 2.5 market. The most recent of those, on 29 Oct 2023, ended Palmeiras 1–0 Bahia — a Palmeiras win.
With a balanced win record and just 1.8 goals per game, the H2H data points toward a tight, low-scoring contest — Under 2.5 is the stronger head-to-head angle regardless of which side wins.
In-Play Profile
Palmeiras in-play tendencies (last 52 games, 26 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 73% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 62% of the time; of the 13 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 38%; BTTS occurs in 38% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 42% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 44% of the time.
Bahia in-play tendencies (last 52 games, 26 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 69% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 80% of the time; of the 13 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 31%; BTTS occurs in 54% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 58% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Palmeiras 40% versus Bahia 54%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Palmeiras 46% | Bahia 54%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Palmeiras 1.83 xG and Bahia 0.98 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Palmeiras attack 1.069 / defence 0.824 | Bahia attack 1.110 / defence 1.231. League average goals — home 1.390 / away 1.070. Bahia's defence rating of 1.231 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Palmeiras's projected output up. Data: built from Palmeiras's last 52 games and Bahia's last 52.
Result probabilities: Palmeiras 56% | Draw 26% | Bahia 18%. Fair-value odds: Palmeiras 1.80 | Draw 3.83 | Bahia 5.49. The model has a clear lean to Palmeiras (56%) — a 30pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 53% | BTTS Yes probability 54% | Total xG 2.81. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 53%/47% — the total xG of 2.81 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 54% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Palmeiras are the pick at 56% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 26% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.81 combined xG gives a 53% probability to Over 2.5 — mixed conviction, supported by recent form (Palmeiras's last 10 home games and Bahia's last 10 away games) averaging 2.9 goals per game — though the H2H data averaging only 1.8 goals per game across 4 H2H matches points the other way.
Poisson assigns a 54% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Palmeiras 20% (last 10 home games) | Bahia 90% (last 10 away games).

📈 Form Insight
Where Both Sides Stand
Palmeiras's recent record stands at 28W 13D 11L from 52 games, a 1.87 PPG return, with W-W-L-W-D in the last five.
Bahia, meanwhile, have gone 20W 11D 21L across 52 games — 1.37 PPG, with L-W-W-L-W in their last five.
The points-per-game comparison favours Palmeiras by 0.50 — a real, if not enormous, edge over Bahia heading into this one.
Home Ground vs the Road
At home specifically, Palmeiras have managed 18W 3D 5L from their last 26 home games — 2.19 PPG in front of their own supporters.
Bahia's away record stands at 5W 6D 15L across their last 26 away games, a 0.81 PPG haul. That's a step down from their 1.37 PPG overall record — away form has been the weaker part of Bahia's recent record.
Comparing the two in their relevant venue splits, Palmeiras come out ahead — a more targeted read than the overall PPG figures above, since it strips out games played in the opposite context.

Defensively: Palmeiras have kept a clean sheet in 44% of their games — worth knowing if you're weighing up clean-sheet or BTTS-No markets.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Palmeiras beat Bahia 2-0 at Allianz Parque, Regular Season - 15, in the Serie A. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Palmeiras 1.83 xG and Bahia 0.98 xG, a combined 2.81. The scoreboard read 2-0 for 2 actual goals. Bahia landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Palmeiras attack 1.07 / defence 0.82 against Bahia attack 1.11 / defence 1.23, drawn from 52/52 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Palmeiras 56% | Draw 26% | Bahia 18%, with Palmeiras to win its most likely call at 56%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 53%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 79% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 54% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 50% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Palmeiras 46%, Bahia 54%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 47%, which matched the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Palmeiras's trading profile (52 games, 26 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 40% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 44% of the time, and duly kept one.
Bahia's trading profile (52 games, 26 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 27% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
On form, Palmeiras arrived the stronger side — 1.87 PPG against 1.37. That form edge translated into the three points. Bahia (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.19 scoring average — below par going forward.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (hit). The model got the gist right while missing on the margins.
