Match Preview
Corinthians host Fortaleza at the Arena Corinthians on Sunday, 3 August, with both teams looking to improve their fortunes in Serie A. Corinthians have shown some resilience, managing to secure a win in their last outing after a shaky start, while Fortaleza continues to struggle, having failed to win any of their last five matches. The home side's recent form, featuring two wins and a draw in their last five, contrasts sharply with Fortaleza's lack of victories, which may give Corinthians a psychological edge.
Historically, Corinthians have dominated this fixture, winning five of the last ten encounters, and they will look to leverage their home advantage. A key angle to consider is the likelihood of both teams scoring; with four of the last ten meetings ending with both teams finding the net, and the odds for BTTS at 2.1, this could be a promising bet. Given Fortaleza's defensive vulnerabilities and Corinthians' attacking potential, a high-scoring affair seems plausible, making the over 2.5 goals bet at 2.5 an attractive option as well.
