Fortaleza may still occupy a place in the relegation zone in the Brazilian top flight table but Wednesday night’s hosts will be going in search of back-to-back wins when they entertain Vasco da Gama having previously successfully accounted for the likes of Juventude in a 2-1 win away from home last time out.

Recent results have seen Fortaleza flip-flop between wins and losses but luckily for the hosts they have registered three wins to two losses in their last five league matches overall; victories gained over Vitoria, Sport Recife and Juventude have outweighed losses at the hands of Palmeiras and Sao Paulo.

In addition, two of Fortaleza’s recent three wins were achieved on home soil at their Estádio Governador Plácido Castelo so the hosts look to have a decent chance with the handicap.

Vasco da Gama picked up a third win in four games last time out in the Brazilian Serie A as the visitors registered a high-scoring 4-3 home win against Vitoria which followed previous victories chalked up over the likes of Bahia and Cruzeiro.

Overall form looks fairly solid and consistent where Fernando Diniz’s side have been concerned as the visitors have slipped to just one loss in their last nine matches in all competitions, whilst collecting four wins and four draws as well.

However, a rather poor looking away record of 3-2-8 19/23 suggests Vasco da Gama could struggle in this upcoming trip to face Fortaleza.

The Betting Verdict

Fortaleza are unbeaten in the last six meetings at home against Vasco da Gama.
