Betting tips Fortaleza vs Ceara

The hosts enter this fixture having picked up just 2 points from their opening 7 matches, leaving them bottom of the pile and already 6 points short of safety. 

Likewise, Fortaleza have struggled for early season form but have picked up 6 points from their first 7 fixtures, however, they also find themselves near the foot of the table at this early stage.

Indeed, it´s tough to suggest either side should win this game and both past meetings and recent h2h stats suggest a low-scoring draw looks a good betting angle for this fixture.

Coming into this contest, Fortaleza have drawn 3 of their last 4 at home (all comps) and 2 of their last 3 home league outings while visiting Ceara have drawn 3 of their last 5 matches including each of their last 3 league fixtures.

Past meetings between these sides also suggest the draw offers some value with 4 of the last 8 meetings finishing level. In addition, under 2.5 goals have been scored in 10 of Fortaleza´s last 11 home matches against Ceara in all competitions, suggesting a low-scoring occasion is likely.

With neither side in strong early-season form, another stalemate looks to offer the best value selection for this bottom of the table clash in Brazil.

Final score 1:1
