Match Preview
As Fortaleza prepares to host Vitória in their Serie A clash on Sunday, the home side will be keen to break out of a disappointing run of form. Fortaleza has managed just one point from their last five matches, resulting in a precarious position in the league. In contrast, Vitória's recent performances have shown some resilience, with three draws in their last five outings. This could suggest that they are harder to beat, which may give them an edge in this encounter.
Historically, Fortaleza has had the upper hand in their head-to-head meetings, winning six of the last ten matches, including a solid home record. However, the pressure is on for Fortaleza to secure three points at the Estádio Governador Plácido Aderaldo Castelo, especially given their struggles in front of goal. With both teams potentially looking to exploit defensive weaknesses, the match could see opportunities for goals, making the prospect of both teams scoring a tangible angle to consider.
