Two sides really struggling to get a footing in the Brazilian Serie A face off; Coritiba hosts Fortaleza in the 15th week of matches. The home side is placed 16th with 15 points while Fortaleza have 10 points and go to the game placed bottom. Coritiba have been in a serious slump in their recent games. Each of the last four has ended in defeat, and the team has failed to win any of their last six matches. In the last 10 outings, they’ve managed just two wins, while losing six. They also have two clean sheets only in their last 10 matches but have failed to score in three of the last four. This includes the last two matches, against Athletico Paranaense and Internacional, which ended 1-0 and 3-0 respectively. In three of their last four matches, as well, they’ve conceded two or more goals.

Fortaleza had a glimmer of hope after winning two straight games, but it seems they are back to their struggles. They have failed to win in their last two matches, and are coming from a 1-1 draw at home to Estudiantes in the Copa Libertadores. In their last two matches, Fortaleza have led but failed to tie down the matches and ended up dropping their advantage. In their most recent game, Fortaleza led against Estudiantes but they couldn’t hold on. The draw in that game was fairer; in their last league match, they led 2-0 but lost 3-2 at home to Atletico Mineiro. They should be smarter this time, and especially given they have solidified their attack, scoring in each of their last five matches. They have two clean sheets in four Serie A matches and failed to score in one of their last five league games.
