It's been rough for Vitória so far, and I guess you could say the same about Ponte Preta. The strugglers have a chance for some much needed points here.
- Vitória have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Ponte Preta have yet to win a game away.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Sampaio Correa that ended 2-2.The manager R. Menezes Hubner will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to CSA in only four days.
