Vitória – Atlético-PR PREDICTION (19.10.2017)

Vitoria and Atletico-PR will have their paths crossed on Thursday, October 19, in a match for the twenty-ninth round of the Brazilian Championship in its 2017 edition. At the Manoel Barradas stadium, Barradão, in Salvador , the confrontation begins scheduled to 20h (Brasília time).

The recent performance of Vitoria

The vast majority of teams look forward to home matches to impose their field goal and try to move up the leaderboard. Vitória has been an exception to this rule in the Brazilian Championship version 2018.
When he had the field command, the rubro-negro managed to accumulate only nine points (two wins, three draws and nine losses) of the 42 played. It has the worst advantage as owner of the house among the 20 teams that compete in Serie A. Almost 80 days ago the Lion does not celebrate a victory in Barradão.
This is the main reason for the difficult situation of the team in the Brasileirão. After all, outside the house, the Lion usually roars loudly. He accumulated 24 points (seven wins, three draws and four losses) also in 42 disputed ones. It is the second most effective visitor of the competition, being surpassed in this question only by Corinthians, leader fired of the competition.
In addition to this ‘ghost’, coach Wagner Mancini has to deal with another difficulty for Wednesday’s match. The next red-black commitment is the classic against Bahia. This not only distracts the attention of players and fans as it raises concerns about possible suspensions. David, Fernando Miguel, Geferson, Tréllez and Uillian Correia, Caíque Sá and Carlos Eduardo are hung with two yellow cards and if warned this Thursday they will be out of Ba-Vi. This may cause them not to enter the required arrangement into the split.
Despite saying he will not prioritize the classic, Mancini has already warned that he asked players to be extra careful to avoid the third yellow card.

The current form of Atlético-PR

The Hurricane lived heaven and hell in the 2017 season of Brasileirão. He attended the region of sticking with assiduity and came to flirt with a place in the qualifying zone for the 2018 Copa Libertadores of America.

It has, however, low bias. It has eight points less in comparison with the elite squad, which would have vacancy in the next edition of the continental tournament, and three forward in comparison with the Ponte Preta, which opens the region of the sticking.
To try to reverse this trend, coach Fabiano Soares can not count on midfielder and striker Nikão. He was expelled against Sao Paulo and will have to comply with automatic suspension in Salvador. The coach did not advance, however, who will be his substitute. He only related Gedoz, Sidcley and Lucas Fernandes as candidates to fill the vacancy.
Who can return to the team is left-back Fabrizio and midfielder Lucho Gonzáles. They had automatic suspension in front of the São Paulo tricolor and they already had playing conditions. Injured, the defender Paulo André follows from outside.
