Player to watch: Willian Oliveira
Vitoria's fortune's have improved over the course of the season. They had no wins in their first eight league games, but have won three of four matches since then. This is thanks, in part, to Willian Oliveira, who has been in sensational form for the hosts lately.
The former Fluminense midfielder bagged four goals in his last five appearances for the club, after scoring just once in 17 games before that. He'll look to continue that fine form as Vitoria host Athletico Paranaense this weekend.
