Match description

A draw appears most likely: Cuiabá have not scored at home yet (0 goals, 100% of home matches without a goal), and despite a middling xG of 1.18 they register 4 shots on target and 13 shots per game, indicating significant finishing issues. Their home defense is, however, very solid — on average 0 goals conceded per match and 100% clean sheets in home fixtures, so the hosts rarely allow opponents to score. Ceará have the edge in attacking quality: average xG on the road is 1.51, with 14 attempts and 4 shots on target per game and an average of 1.0 goals scored away; they have not failed to score in away matches (0% games without a goal). At the same time the visitors concede an average of 1.0 goal away and have conceded 6 goals in the last 5 matches, and in their last five fixtures they recorded 4 draws and 1 loss (an average of 0.8 points per match), which limits their chances of a clear win. Considering the hosts’ 100% draw rate at home, the high draw percentage for the visitors and the modest xG and shot advantage for Ceará, the safest scenario is a draw, with Ceará slightly more likely than the hosts to win.
