There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Ceará have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Only two Serie A home games for Atlético GO so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeat. In general it's been a long time since Atlético tasted defeat here at Estádio Antônio Accioly, as they have taken at least one point from their last 19 home games in the league.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 257 minutes without scoring a league goal. Jorginho was the last player to find the net.
Atlético faced defeat in their previous match, away at EC Sao Jose (0-1). Prior to that, an away loss at Goias in the Serie A.
This is expected to be a close game, with Atlético GO perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Atlético as a small favourite), we find six games. Atlético GO has won three of these, drawn two and lost one.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Atlético as they are travelling to their away game against Fluminense in the Serie A. That match is three days after this one.
At Estádio Antônio Accioly, Atlético GO has the goal stats of 4-1 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
No Serie A points yet away for Ceará, from their first 2 matches. Ceará has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Ceará play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-3 victory visiting Vitoria. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Bahia in the Serie A.
An amazing comeback from Ceará last time out, trailing 0-2 before rallying an inspired fight which eventually led to Lima scoring the winning goal in the 88th minute. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Ceará, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun? Things did not look good last match, when Charles got a red card in the 30th minute. They were already behind at this time, but a tremendous finish from Ceará resulted in a win!
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Ceará in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Ceará, two draws and four defeats.
After this away game Ceará return home for a Serie A game against Fortaleza. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Ceará have the goal stats of 2-5 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
