Brasileiro Serie A - Vitoria BA v Portuguesa SP

This will be a game between two teams that do not cross a good moment in season: Vitoria is the 10th and Portuguesa is 17th.

But it's ranking of Vitoria is a little "liar", becuase they did an excellent first round but now they are living a down of form in this final straight of the championship. If we look to the last 10 games we can determine which were only 3 victories in 10 games, with an average of less than 1 goal per game.

The Vitoria cames from 2 defeats away from home, against two difficult opponents such as Goias and the Inter. It is true that play all in search of victory tonight, but I think that the pressure may hinder a little income. As the Portuguesa should play for the draw, and with a defensive scheme, I think that Vitoria will have some problems to score. If the goal does not arise at the beginnig of the game, I believe that Portuguesa will be able to get a point, or at worst miss by the minimum margin.

I don't see Portuguesa scoring more than one goal in this game by two reasons: the first is that the Vitoria at home has a rock solid defense and hard to beat. Until now been only 9 goals in 13 games, and in the last 4 games do not suffer any goal in Barradão. On the other side are the Portuguese, that the worst attacks the championship, with only 9 goals away from home at 14 games.

For these reasons I believe in a very balanced game, and with few goals. The biggest fear is if the Vitoria score a goal in the first half hour of game, which would cause the Portuguese is more open and fast transitions (strength of Victoria) the team coached by Vágner Mancini could make a result more extended.
