Team News

Vitoria
Gremio
  • Ney Franco is likely to make at least one change to the side that beat Vasco.
  • Central midfielder Michel is a major doubt with a knee problem.
  • Luís Cáceres is likely to come into the side.
  • Renato Gaúcho must decide whether or not to restore Elano to his starting XI.
  • The former Brazil midfielder scored against Santos but is still not full fit.
  • Ramiro is available again after suspension.

Prediction

  • Back up to sixth after consecutive 2-1 wins, Vitória are settling into life under Ney Franco.
  • The former São Paulo coach has certainly brought the best out of Marquinhos, who has scored twice in four games.
  • Grêmio reduced the gap between them and second-placed Botafogo to four points in midweek and will be keen to kick on.
