Ceará
LWDLLL 📉
Ceará won’t want a repeat of their last result here after a 2-0 Serie B loss in their previous game against Goias.
Juninho (80') scored for Goias.
Ceará have been quite ineffective in attack of late. Their sum of goals stands at just 4 against opponents over their previous 6 outings. In those games, Ceará have also seen the tally of goals scored against them come to 9. Such a pattern won’t necessarily follow through here, however.
Athletic Club
WDDLWL ⚖
After a losing effort in their last game against Operário Ferroviário in Serie B competition, Athletic Club will be hoping to turn things around here.
The only scorer from Athletic Club was Gian Cabezas (54' Own goal).
The strike force from Athletic Club have suffered from a lack of goals in their past six encounters, netting the unsatisfactory return of just 4. In those matches, Athletic have also seen the collective goal aggregate of their opponents equal 5.
Coming into this fixture, Athletic Club are without a win away from home in their last 2 league matches.

Team News: Ceará
It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just the sole fitness concern for the Ceará boss Daniel Paulista to be concerned about from an otherwise complete group. Sávio (Hamstring injury) will miss out.
🗞️
Team News: Athletic Club
Due to a mostly full-strength group of players, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Athletic Club manager Alex de Souza to contend with. Philipe Sampaio (muscular problems) won’t be playing here.

Prediction
In our opinion, Athletic Club are certainly able to find the back of the net against this Ceará outfit, although it might not be as many as they’ll concede.
We think that it’s going to be a close game with a 2-1 winning margin for Ceará when all is said and done. Expecting it to be very competitive.
