The Serie B fixture at Estádio Governador Plácido Castelo on Monday sees home side Ceará facing Athletic Club.
Our Ceará v Athletic Club tips, poll and stats can be seen in full below - along with the latest match odds.
Ceará will be looking to improve on their last outing here following the 2-0 Serie B loss in their previous game against Goias.
Juninho (80') was the scorer 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.
Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against Operário Ferroviário in Serie B action, Athletic Club and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
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.
There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the sole fitness concern for the Ceará manager Daniel Paulista to contend with from an otherwise fully-primed group of players. Sávio (Hamstring injury) won’t play.
Thanks to a mainly healthy group of players, there’s just a single fitness problem for the Athletic Club gaffer Alex de Souza to contend with. Philipe Sampaio (muscular problems) misses out for this game.
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.
Looking at the betting prices for the match in the win-draw-win market, backing Ceará is best priced at 1.76, a bet on a drawn result is 3.25 & betting on a win for Athletic Club gets you 4.33. Those are the most competitive prices being offered at present.
