Vitoria vs Atletico PR Predictions & Betting Tips, Match Previews

These two sides still have plenty to play for with 5 games to go so this should be a competitive match with plenty riding on it. Vitoria are in the relegation zone but look the best equipped of the sides in the bottom four to drag themselves out of it and a win could move them above the dotted line here. Atletico PR are battling for a place in the Copa Libertadores next season so will also be keen to get a result.

They’ve been a very strange side this season. They’ve been dominant at home but are barely recognisable on their travels where they’ve struggled badly for goals and points. They haven’t scored an away goal in the league since July and have lost their last 8 away fixtures to nil. Both teams have scored in just 24% of their matches this term and that figure goes down to 19% away from home, which is an incredibly low figure to have particularly at such a late stage in the season.

Vitoria have been firing blanks a bit more than they might like too. They’ve failed to score in 4 of their last 5 matches but did pick up a good draw at Fluminense last time out. Their last 4 home games have produced only 5 goals with three of those games ending in 1-0 defeats and one 2-0 win over Sao Paulo. Therefore, it’s hard to see this developing into a classic with Atletico PR so poor away from home and Vitoria in a bad run of form overall.

The home team may just have found a bit of belief from their last showing though and with Atletico PR averaging just 0.5 goals and 0.44 points per game on their travels, Vitoria do look the more likely winners. Given a massive 50% of Atletico PR’s away games this season have ended in 1-0 defeats, including 6 of their last 8, backing Vitoria to Win 1-0 at 5/1 looks the best approach here.
