Avai vs Fortaleza – Avai can make it two wins in a row in the Brasileiro Serie A when they visit Fortaleza on Thursday at Estadio da Ressacada, following their first away win of the season. Santa Catarina won 1-0 over Botafogo on Monday, but Leao do Pici dropped to the bottom of the standings with seven points.
On Monday, Avai had a moment of magic that turned her life around, and that’s what happens when everything seems to be going against you. Kevin’s looping free-kick was all they needed to beat Botafogo and climb out of the relegation zone. This puts them in contention for a Copa Libertadores spot in the event of another win on Thursday, pending the outcome of other games.
Eduardo Barroca’s side ended a five-match losing streak with a goal of individual brilliance, despite allowing Fogo seven chances on target to get the better of them. When the stakes are high, Time da Raca can’t seem to keep their composure, as seen by the three red cards they’ve received in their last four games after the 85th minute of play.
In their last nine league games, all of which were decided by a goal or less, these guys know how to persevere and compete. Since the start of the season, Fortaleza has gained five points in their past three league games, putting them five points behind the final Serie A spot for the following campaign.
The majority of the chances fell to Juan Pablo Vojvoda’s side, who held Athletico Paranaense without a shot on target while having 64% of the possession and 6 shots on target themselves.
Avai vs Fortaleza – Betting Analysis
At least five of their Serie A matches so far have gone without a goal for Northeastern Brazilian side Fluminense, who are known for their aggressive style. Earlier this month, they beat Flamengo 2-1 away from home in the 2022 Brasileiro campaign, their lone win of the season.
Despite having only 34% possession, they only allowed 3 shots on target in their last league outing against Flamengo. They will have to keep up that level of solidity in two of their last three league outings this month.
A high-energy team, Fortaleza prefers to hold possession of the ball and move it around at times, although they appear to have greater success while playing on the counterattack. Despite this, they press relentlessly. Both of these clubs have showed flashes of attacking brilliance, but neither has been able to maintain that form consistently. As a result, look for a close game between two teams who haven’t given up many goals recently.
