📏 Form Guide

Ceará

DDWLWL ⚖

Ceará will be hoping for a better result after a 1-0 Serie A loss in their previous game against Bahia.

In that game, Ceará had 35% possession and 10 shots at goal with 2 on target. For their opponents, Bahia had 13 attempts at goal with 4 on target. Éverton Ribeiro (104') was the scorer for Bahia.

It has been all too rare in recent times that Ceará have kept a clean sheet. It will be a concern for them that Ceará have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, leaking 8 goals in the process.

Palmeiras

Palmeiras head into the clash following a 2-3 Copa Libertadores win to beat Bolívar in their most recent game.

In that game, Palmeiras managed 24% possession and 10 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. For Palmeiras, the scorers were José Manuel López (19') and Maurício (73'). On the other side, Bolivar got 19 attempts on goal with 6 on target. Fábio Gomes (56', 69') was the scorer for Bolívar.

A series of steadfast showings from the Palmeiras defence has seen their ‘goals against’ tally amounting to 4 from their previous 6 clashes overall. In that period of time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 11. That pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this match, of course.
