Fasten your seatbelt before the show! Today's main heroes are Vitória and Novorizontino, victory is the main plot and 90 minutes the duration.
- Vitória have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
- Novorizontino have the most points (16) away in Serie B
It's quite the trip for Novorizontino when visiting Vitória as the cities are 1900 kilometers apart.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Vitória form and stats
Vitória have performed here at Estádio Manoel Barradas this season with 5 wins from 7 Serie B matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 0 games and lost 2.
Stress levels are on the rise for Vitória's attacking players as they have now played 207 minutes without scoring in a league game. Welder was their last goal scorer.
In their previous game, the manager Condé led his Vitória to a defeat away at Vila Nova. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estádio Manoel Barradas. Leonardo, defender, was given a rating of 7.45/10 in that game, top of the team. Leonardo won 5 of 6 duels.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Juventude (0-1).This is expected to be a close game, with Vitória perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Vitória as a small favourite), we find 6 games. Vitória has won 3 of these, drawn 2 and lost 1.
It should be considered that a look at the 16 latest league fixtures reveals that 12 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the sides scored a goal).
Vitória are traveling soon after this match as the Serie B match at Sport Recife awaits in three days.
Vitória have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Estádio Manoel Barradas with 13 goals in 7 league matches. From these home matches, Vitória have conceded only 5 goals.
Novorizontino form and stats
The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 5 wins, 1 draw and only 2 losses in the Serie B.
Novorizontino's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Atletico GO that finished 2-2. Drawing 2-2 against Atletico GO after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Baptista needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Baggio, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 9.13. Baggio scored two goals, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.
A 0-1 defeat away at Ponte Preta before that.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 12 similar matches played by Novorizontino in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Novorizontino, 4 draws and 6 defeats.
A tale of few goals? 12 of this side's latest 15 league matches have had two or less goals.
After this away game Novorizontino return home for a Serie B game against Londrina. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Novorizontino has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 12 goals from 8 games. It's not easy to score on Novorizontino as they have only conceded 5 goals from these away games.
