Vitoria vs Bragantino Predictions

• Vitoria have won two of their 14 league games this season
• The hosts have failed to win in eight across all competitions, losing five times
• Bragantino have won three of their last four away trips

Bragantino can edge out struggling hosts

Bragantino are third in Brazil’s top-flight, with the club just three points shy of leaders Cruzeiro ahead of this weekend’s fixtures. They continue their title chase with a trip to Vitoria, who are a point shy of safety.

Vitoria have won only twice in 14 league games this season, securing home wins against the 15th and 19th-placed sides in the division. They head into Sunday’s clash having failed to win in eight matches across all competitions, suffering five defeats.

Bragantino have won four of their six away trips this season, while the visitors have won three of their last four starts on their travels. They should be confident of stopping a Vitoria side who are looking blunt, after recording just 0.2 xG in their 0-0 draw with Botafogo last time out.

The hosts have failed to generate 1.0 xG in four successive starts, while Bragantino have scored in 13 of their 14 league games this term, including all six of their away trips. With Vitoria losing two of their three clashes with the top four so far, take the visitors to claim the points at just shy of 2/1.
