Match Preview
Grêmio hosts Fortaleza at the Arena do Grêmio in a crucial Serie A clash on July 30. The home side, despite a mixed recent form with two wins and three losses in their last five matches, will be buoyed by their strong historical performance against Fortaleza, having won five of their last ten encounters. Notably, the teams have shared the spoils evenly, with five draws, indicating a competitive edge in their meetings.
Fortaleza arrives with a troubling run of form, managing just one win in their last five outings, which includes three draws and a loss. Their struggles in front of goal may hinder their chances against a Grêmio side that has shown resilience at home. A key angle to consider is the likelihood of both teams scoring; with five of their last ten head-to-head matches resulting in both teams finding the net, the odds of 1.95 for BTTS could be worth exploring. Grêmio's home advantage and historical dominance suggest they might edge this encounter, but a tight contest is expected.
