Álvez scored his first goal abroad on 19 September 2014, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against Paços de Ferreira.[12] On 3 October, he scored a brace in a 3–0 home win against Boavista.
Álvez scored five goals for Vitória, but left the club in June 2015 after failing to agree new terms.[13]
