Posted February 9th, 2021 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: Brazil Serie A

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 1/2 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at the foot of the table, Fortaleza will host Vasco da Gama late on Wednesday night in what could be a lively encounter.

Starting with the hosts, after picking up maximum points last time out, there is no doubt that Fortaleza are a side that are desperately seeking some stability. In their 34 Serie A matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, 11 draws and 14 defeats, scoring 31 and conceding 35 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 38, Wednesday’s hosts open the midweek fixtures sat 15th in the table and holding just a one-point buffer from slipping into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen landing a 3-1 win against Coritiba on home soil, Fortaleza have managed to win just a pair of their last 11 Serie A contests, a run that stems back to November 22nd. It should also be highlighted that Fortaleza have seen their last five straight matchups finish with over 1.5 goals.

As for the visitors, also struggling to find much stability on either side of the festive break, Vasco da Gama are another side in the midst of a relegation battle. In their 34 Serie A matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, 10 draws and 15 defeats, scoring 34 and conceding 49 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 37, they open the midweek fixtures sat 17th in the table and with their goal difference keeping them stuck in the bottom-four. As for their recent run of results, hit with a 2-0 defeat away at Flamengo last time out, Vasco have managed to win just one of their last six Serie A matchups. It should be highlighted, with eight of their last nine away fixtures across all formats finishing with over 1.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome in midweek.
