Bahia will host Gremio at the Fonte Nova Arena on Tuesday in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the 2023 Copa do Brasil.
The home side have had their struggles in the league this season and will hope for better luck in the domestic cup this week. They faced Santos in the last 16 of the tournament, playing out a goalless draw in the first leg and then a 1-1 draw in the second before going on to win on penalties.
Gremio are playing well in the Brasileiro Serie A at the moment and will be looking to carry that momentum onto the domestic cup on Tuesday. They played Cruzeiro in the competition last time out, coming from behind to earn a 1-1 draw in the first leg before picking up a 1-0 victory in the return leg.
