Why bet on Santos
To date, Santos has won five of its 15 matches in the Brazilian Championship, scoring 16 goals and conceding 16, so, The São Paulo giants are eighth in the general table with 20 points, having an underperforming season until now, but they had not suffered defeats in their last two away league matches.
Why bet on Fortaleza
Since the start of the competition, the locals have earned 30 points after winning nine of the 15 matches played, with 25 goals scored and 14 conceded.
Fortaleza are in third place in the table, and also have a positive statistic against their opponents: in their last five meetings against Santos, they have not been defeated.
Final betting analysis for Santos vs. Fortaleza
We have the impression that Santos will have very few chances to break through the Fortaleza goal line. In this line of thought, a very defensive match with a 1-0 victory for Fortaleza is the most plausible outcome.
Considering this, we expect it to be a tight result, but impressive nonetheless, with the team from Ceará achieving consecutive victories against both last Copa Libertadores finalists.
