Ceará
LLWWLL
Ceará won’t want a repeat of their last result here after the 1-2 Serie B loss in their previous game against Operário Ferroviário.
In that match, Ceará had 53% possession and 20 attempts at goal with 8 on target. For their opponents, Operario Ferroviario had 9 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. Gabriel Boschilia (54') was the scorer for Operário Ferroviário.
It’s not been often in recent times that Ceará have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The reality is that Ceará have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 matches, letting in 9 goals along the way.
Ahead of this meeting, Ceará haven't lost in the league to Avaí in their previous 2 matches.
Avaí
LDDLLL 📉
After being beaten in their last game against Criciuma in Serie B action, Avaí and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.
In that game, Avaí had 57% possession and 11 shots on goal with 3 on target. Criciuma got 16 attempts at goal with 3 on target. Rómulo Otero (39') and Mateus (46') scored for Criciuma.
The stats don’t lie, and Avaí have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 11 goals in all. Defensively, Avaí could really do with shoring things up. We will just have to see if that trend can be continued on in this game.
Their previous form shows that Avaí:
- haven't beaten Ceará when having played them away from home in the previous 4 league games. Not good at all.
- haven’t won away from home in the past 3 league matches.
