Cuiabá vs Vitória Prediction: The two worst teams in the Brasileirão will try to get their first win

The postponement of this Round 2 match was related to Cuiabá's participation in the Copa Verde. The clash now assumes greater importance as the two teams occupy the bottom two places in the table after seven rounds. Cuiabá has zero points, while Vitória has one point. The Matogrossenses and Baianos desperately need to win.

Cuiabá

The Golden Dorado has no points and has yet to score a goal. The numbers are too bad for a team that performed so well in the last Brasileirão. The departure of coach António Oliveira to Corinthians at the start of this season has greatly affected the team's performance. Another factor that hurt Cuiabá was the sidelining of goalscorer Deyverson, who has already signed for another club for next season. The club president now seems to have gone back on his decision at the request of coach Petit, and Deyverson will rejoin training with his teammates. The Green-Gold side lost 1-0 at home to Internacional in the last round and cannot repeat the defeat against Vitória.

Vitória

The Barra's Lion also lost at home in its last game, with the aggravating factor of losing against a direct competitor in the relegation fight. Patric saw a red card in the 39th minute, and Atlético Goianiense didn't waste the opportunity to win at the Barradão. Coach Thiago Carpini lost his first two games in charge. In their last three matches in the Série A, the Baianos have always finished with ten players, which has made it even harder to pick up points. Cuiabá has yet to score and could be the ideal opponent for Vitória to win for the first time.

Expert Betting Tips

Neither team has won so far in the Brasileirão. Both have struggled in their games, and if they don't improve, they have a high chance of relegation to the Série B. Vitória has a lot of absentees due to injuries and suspensions, so I'm betting on the home team to win. Despite being in last place, Cuiabá has more experience than Vitória.
