Fortaleza vs Santos FC prediction 12.06.2025 | Brasileirão Betano

• Competition: Brasileirão Betano
• Date: 12th June, 2025
• Kickoff: 23:30 UK / 00:30 CEST
• Venue: Estadio Castelao

Fortaleza and Santos FC, two of the four worst teams in the Brasileirão Betano, will meet at the Estadio Castelao on Thursday with hopes of escaping the relegation zone.

Fortaleza have suffered three consecutive defeats in the league, failing to score a single goal and conceding a total of ten. In their last encounter, they were swept aside 5-0 by Flamengo, who scored five goals without conceding.

Santos have also struggled in the league so far this season, winning just twice in their first 11 games. In the last round, they suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Botafogo, in which Neymar was partly to blame, as his red card in the 76th minute was the crucial point of the game.

Fortaleza - Santos FC Betting Tips: Under 2.5 Goals

Both teams are among the five teams with the fewest goals in the league, with Santos scoring just three goals in six away games so far. The hosts have found it particularly difficult to break down their opponents' defence in recent weeks and have failed to score in three consecutive league games. Santos are also very weak in the attacking end, but at least they manage to prevent their opponents from scoring - in 7 of their last 8 games they have scored less than 2.5 goals. We are betting on a low-scoring game and recommend a bet on Under 2.5 Goals.
