Why Bet on Vitória?
Vitória returned to the top flight of Brazilian soccer for the 2024 season and have not been able to play their best.
Currently, the team is ranked 15th in the table, with four wins, three draws, and eight losses, with 18 goals scored and 24 conceded. The Leão da Barra needs its pieces to mesh perfectly from now on, otherwise, it will continue to lose games and sink to the relegation places again.
Likewise, Vitória shows some flashes of good soccer in some matchdays, and an example of this was on matchday 15, where they achieved an excellent victory against Criciúma at home by 2-1.
Now, they will have to face one of the strongest teams of this season, so a pitched battle is expected between these two teams.
Why Bet on Botafogo?
