Part 4/6:
While focusing on the leading teams, some commentators express skepticism toward other clubs. Bahia and São Paulo are not seen as serious contenders for the title, despite their presence in the tournament. Bahia, in particular, appears less capable, with analysts dubbing them unlikely to challenge for the championship even if they progress to the group stages.
Interestingly, it is recognized that historical patterns suggest Brazilian teams dominate the competition. With the expectation that the champions will likely be Brazilian again, there is an anticipation for another all-Brazilian final in the future, given recent patterns in tournament outcomes.
