Team News

Ponte Preta
Vitoria
  • Eduardo Baptista is without midfielder Naldo, who is suspended.
  • But Elton returns from a ban and Fernando Bob has been cleared to play.
  • The captain had a suspension overturned on appeal, which is great news for the Macaca.
  • Vagner Mancini could plump for a more combative midfield this weekend.
  • Ramon, José Welison, Uillian Correa and Fillipe Soutto all look set to play.
  • Caique Sá is available after suspension but may not start.

Prediction

  • Relegation battles don't get much more dramatic than this one: both of these teams are in desperate need of points to escape the drop.
  • Hosts Ponte Preta are level with Sport and Avaí, but would overtake Vitória, who are currently one point better off, with a win in Campinas.
  • For Vitória, who have been impressive away from home all season, a draw would probably be quite a good result.
