Juventude and Fortaleza meet on Saturday, Aug 15 at 11:30 PM with both clubs firmly in the mix for the European places in the Serie B. Just 1 point separate them in the standings.
Juventude come into this fixture in good form (3W 1D 1L recently). Fortaleza travel in good form (3W 0D 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
Despite playing at home, Juventude face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Fortaleza have won 7 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Juventude won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.4 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Juventude a slight edge, but Fortaleza are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
