Previously, Ceará drew 0-0 in the Serie A match with Atlético Mineiro.

In that match, Ceará managed 52% possession and 16 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. At the other end, Atlético Mineiro had 14 attempts on goal with 2 on target.

Over the course of 5 of the past 6 clashes involving Ceará, a relatively low number of goals have been struck between them and their opposition. The overall average number of goals per game during that spell comes out as a paltry 1.83, with the number of goals averaged by Vovô equalling 1.17. While that may be of interest, we must now wait to see whether that trend will persist in this next game or not.
