On Saturday, two struggling teams meet in the Brazilian Serie A, as Atletico GO host Vitoria at the Estadio Olimpico Pedro Ludovico Teixeira.
Atletico GO have started the campaign in disastrous fashion and are currently bottom of the pile in the Brazilian top-flight, having collected just seven points from their 11 games so far this season.
Understandably, considering their league position, their recent form has not been great. In fact, the home side have lost four of their last six games in the Brazilian top-flight, recording just one win in the process.
The team jointly managed by Doriva and Joao Paulo Sanches have recorded just two leagues wins all season. Their league form on home soil has not been too bad, though, as they have recorded two wins from their last four league games, although they have failed to win either of their last two home games.
The home side’s recent Serie A games have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in their last four outings. A big contributing factor to those low scoring encounters has been the fact that the home side have failed to score in three of their last four games.
Vitoria are just two points and places above their opponents in the table after a poor run of results, that has produced just one win in their last five games in Serie A.
Last time out Alexandre Gallo’s side drew 0-0 with local rivals Bahia but certainly had enough chances to win the game. The draw means Vitoria have now failed to win in their last three league games, although it did end a two-game losing run at least.
The visitor’s recent away form has been poor, as they have lost three of their last four games on their travels in Serie A. This looks like the perfect game to better that record.
Both teams are heading into this game in unconvincing form and Forebet predicts this encounter will finish all square.
