After two victories without conceding a goal, the doubt regarding the starting team remains in the offensive sector.
Víctor Cuesta is fit to play, even with a protective mask, and is competing for a place with Kanu in the starting team.
In attack, Everaldo should gain continuity after two goals in the last three games, forming a partnership with Thaciano.
A probable Bahia has: Marcos Felipe; Arias, Gabriel Xavier, Kanu (Victor Cuesta) and Luciano Juba; Caio Alexandre, Jean Lucas, Everton Ribeiro and Cauly; Thaciano and Everaldo.
The official lineup will be published one hour before the ball rolls. Botafogo and Bahia will face each other at 6:30 pm on Sunday, at the Nilton Santos stadium.
