Over/Under - goals analysis

Fortaleza score an average of 1.94 goals per match, while CRB concede 1.69, giving the home side a solid platform to find the net. The visitors average 1.13 goals scored, while Fortaleza concede 1.13; additionally, CRB have scored 9 goals in their last 5 matches. Matches involving these teams have gone over 1.5 goals in 81% and 75% of cases, respectively, making Over 1.5 the strongest pick. The 2.5 line is less certain: at least 3 goals were scored in 69% of Fortaleza matches and 56% of CRB matches, but in only 40% of Fortaleza’s last 5. The projected total of 3.01 goals points to the potential for a higher-scoring game, but the strongest statistical edge is on the two-goal threshold.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest pick is Fortaleza to lead at the break and win after 90 minutes: the hosts were ahead at half-time in 3 of their last 5 matches and scored before the break in each of them. Across the season, Fortaleza average 1.94 goals per match compared with CRB’s 1.13, while their average xG is 2.23 versus their opponents’ 1.72, indicating an attacking edge for the hosts. Their second-half results also support them holding on to the lead: Fortaleza score an average of 1.06 goals after the break, while CRB concede 1.06. However, caution is warranted, as CRB kept a clean sheet in the first half in 4 of their last 5 matches and have recently scored an average of 1.4 goals after the break; therefore, a draw at half-time followed by a home win remains a notable alternative. Despite this improvement in the visitors’ form, Fortaleza’s season win rate is 56% compared with CRB’s 38%, so the 1/1 scenario is the best-supported by the data.
