Athletico Paranaense’s bid to secure a CONMEBOL Libertadores spot for next season is set to tested again ahead of their Sunday game at Arena Fonte Nova against Bahia, who have hopes of staying clear of the relegation zone.

Bahia were beaten 3-0 in their last Serie A match at home against Cuiaba, leaving them in 15th place on 37 points, level on points with 17th-placed Cruzeiro but just outside of the relegation zone.
At Arena Fonte Nova this season, the hosts have picked up 25 points from a possible 48 on offer in 16 Serie A matches, with seven wins, four draws and five losses.
The previous Serie A match between the sides saw Athletico PR claim a 2-0 victory at Ligga Arena in July, with Vitor Roque and Erick getting on the scoresheet.
