Vitoria vs Bahia prediction 17.10.2025 | Serie A

Before the international break, Vitoria visited Vasco da Gama, looking to secure back-to-back wins after beating Ceará 1-0 at home in their previous game.

The Conquerors' inconsistency was once again the star of the show, as they conceded four goals and lost 4:3. They have failed to win consecutive games since May 2025, losing ten of the last 21 matches.

However, Jair Ventura’s men will be motivated by the fact that 7 of the 11 games in which they didn't lose were at home. They have also avoided defeat in each of their last six games against Bahia at the Manoel Barradas Stadium.

Carlinhos and Lucas Halter will be unavailable this week due to red cards received against Vasco da Gama in their last match, while Jamerson, Ismael, Fintelman and Fabri are dealing with injuries.

Meanwhile, Bahia went into the October international break all smiles after beating second-placed Flamengo 1-0 at home. This was the Tricolor’s second consecutive home win, but their recent away form is a cause for concern.

Indeed, Rogério Ceni’s side have not won any of their last four away games, losing three and drawing one. They also conceded an average of two goals per game during this period, so a miracle will be needed to secure a win against Vitória on Friday.

Mateo Sanabria and Jean Lucas are available again following their suspensions, but the injury list remains long, with at least five players currently sidelined.
