Criciuma and Fortaleza meet on Sunday, Aug 23 at 11:30 PM with both clubs firmly in the mix for the European places in the Serie B. Criciuma hold the advantage but neither side can afford to drop points.
Criciuma come into this fixture in red-hot form (4W from last 5). Fortaleza travel in good form (3W 0D 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
In 10 previous meetings, Criciuma lead 3–5 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Criciuma won 2–3.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Criciuma a slight edge, but Fortaleza are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
