Cruzeiro, Recent FormCruzeiro boss Fernardo Seabra will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 3-0 away mauling from Atletico Mineiro. They came away from that fixture with 33% of the possession and clocked up 2 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Atletico Mineiro managed 5 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 8, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
Vitoria, Recent FormVitoria will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Bahia with a 2-2 draw and a valuable point. In that game they had 43% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 8 on target, compared to Bahia who had 18 attempts and 6 on target.
Manager Leo Condé will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It's been mixed fortunes for Vitoria away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
After a good 3-0 win for Vitoria in this pair's last league encounter, Cruzeiro will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Playing away from home, Vitoria have conceded a goal in 3 of their last 3 league games against Cruzeiro.
In the league, Cruzeiro has had a good run at home against Vitoria, being unbeaten in their last 7 meetings at Estádio Mineirão.
