Avai’s return to the Brazilian top flight is going just fine so far; they are placed 10th ahead of their home game against bottom placed Fortaleza. Avai have 14 points from 11 matches while Fortaleza have seven points after the same run. It has been a bit unstable for Avai in the recent matches but they are coming into this game having beaten Botafogo 1-0 away from home in their last game. That was their first win in six matches and the first clean sheet in seven matches as well. Both teams have scored in four of their last five matches and seven of their last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals. As Avai work on their defending, they will as well look to do better on discipline in the game. In three of their last four matches, the hosts have had a man sent off, and each of these red cards has come inside the final five minutes.

Fortaleza have seen some stability in their recent matches though it is not all good for them. After opening with eight winless games in Serie A, they have one win and two draws in the last three matches. Fortaleza have the chance to go off the bottom of the standings with a win here but that will depend on Juventude losing to Santos. One win in the last 11 league games doesn’t give Fortaleza a very strong footing going into this game. They have one clean sheet in the last seven matches; their 0-0 draw with Athletico Paranaense was the second time in four matches that they failed to score. The visitors head into this game with one clean sheet in five matches and both sides have scored in three of the five games.
