Match preview: Cruzeiro vs Ceará

Cruzeiro and Ceará are set to clash at the Governador Magalhães Pinto stadium in a match of the 17th round of Brazileirão Serie A. There have been no official encounters between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last match occurred on 25th September 2019 and ended in a 0-0 draw. In this instance, the home advantage may play a crucial role as Cruzeiro has shown significant differences in their performance at home versus away.

Team analysis: Cruzeiro

After 10 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses, the home team finds itself in 1st position with 33 points. In their latest match, they drew with Corinthians (0-0), following a previous home victory against Juventude (4-0). This team benefits from home advantage, displaying stronger performances at home. In their last 30 matches, they recorded 4 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses as visitors, scoring 17 goals and conceding 13, compared to 10 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses at home, with 27 goals scored and 11 conceded.

In this competition, they have not lost any of their last 8 home games. The most frequent result at the end of 90 minutes during home matches in the league has been 2-1, occurring in 3 of their 8 games. The defence has been solid, conceding goals in only 3 of the last 10 encounters, while the attack has been consistently effective, managing to find the net in 7 of the last 10 league matches. In their home fixtures, there is a tendency for goals, with 6 of their 8 games ending in more than 2.5 goals.

Cruzeiro is executing a solid and consistent campaign, demonstrating regularity both at home and away. With an efficient attack and a well-structured defence, the team enters this next fixture confident. The plan is to impose themselves right from the outset, controlling the match and pressing the opposition. As hosts, they have proved to be strong and are unlikely to drop points against an inconsistent rival, thus they enter as favourites to retain their lead.

Team analysis: Ceará

Following 5 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses, the visiting team is positioned 11th with 18 points. In their last match, they suffered a defeat to Mirassol at home (0-2), and prior to that, lost away to Internacional (1-0). This team struggles when playing away, as reflected in their last 30 games where they recorded 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses as visitors; in contrast, they logged 7 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses at home. In their last 7 away matches in the league, Ceará has managed only 1 victory, 2 draws, and 4 losses, gathering 5 points from a possible 21. The most prevalent score at half-time has been 0-0, which occurred in 3 of their 8 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 6 of their 15 league games and have yet to come back to win after going behind.

Ceará has exhibited a mix of good and poor form throughout the season, which has kept them away from the top half of the table. Playing away from home, they have encountered challenges, particularly against more organised opponents. For this encounter, a cautious approach is expected, aiming to neutralise Cruzeiro’s strengths. The primary challenge will be to maintain consistency for the full 90 minutes and take advantage of any opportunities that may arise. Despite limited chances, a well-executed performance could be pivotal in their campaign recovery.
