Latest football commentary Vitoria vs Sport Recife

Starting the season with both domestic and continental fronts, Vitoria declined significantly when they only won 2 matches after the first 10 rounds in Serie A, and were eliminated right from the group stage of Copa Sudamericana.

After a 0-1 defeat to Universidad Catolica – also their final match in continental competition – coach Fabio Carille's team continued their five-match winless streak and were eliminated from the Copa do Nordeste by lower-division side Confianca.

However, the positive signs returned as Vitoria secured a crucial 1-0 win over Red Bull Bragantino over the weekend, with Renato Kayzer scoring the only goal early in the game. This was their first win in weeks without a trophy.

From now until the end of the season, Vitoria will no longer be distracted by other arenas and will focus entirely on the goal of staying in the league. However, the Salvadoran team is still only 1 point above the relegation group, while having played 1 more match.

The next match brings high expectations as they will meet an opponent they have won all 3 of their most recent encounters with and are unbeaten in 5 matches since 2020.

However, after this match, Vitoria will have to face two opponents in the top 7 group in a row, so they need to make the most of the opportunity to gain points in the next 2 weeks to avoid falling behind in the relegation race.

Sport Recife can be considered the team with the worst start to the season this year, approaching the halfway mark without a single win.

After the first 7 rounds with 5 losses and 2 draws, coach Pepa was fired. Antonio Oliveira took temporary charge before Daniel Paulista was officially appointed.

However, both coaches have only helped Recife to win one point from a possible 24, with Sunday's 1-0 loss to Botafogo being their 10th defeat in 13 games.

With only 3 points, Recife is at the bottom of the rankings and is 11 points behind the safe zone - a huge gap in the context of current poor form.

Recife’s defence has conceded 21 goals – the second most in the league, but the biggest problems are up front. The visitors have scored just five – the fewest in the league and at least five fewer than any other team.

If they don't improve their scoring ability, Recife's chances of making an escape are almost zero.
