Vitoria will host Internacional at the Estadio Manoel Barradas on Sunday in another round of the 2024 Brasileirao Serie A campaign. The home side have endured a difficult return to the Brazilian top flight and continue their search for their first win of the league campaign.
They played out a 1-1 draw against Juventude in their last match, falling behind just after the half-hour mark before William Oliveira leveled the scores minutes later with his first-ever away goal for the club.
Internacional, meanwhile, are enjoying a good run of form at the moment, although they remain mid-table in the league standings. They played out a goalless draw against Sao Paulo in their last match and could have no real complaints about the result after failing to register a single shot on target throughout the match.
The visitors sit 10th in the league table with 11 points from six matches and will be looking to add to that tally come Sunday.
