Fortaleza U20 form and stats
Fortaleza U20 have played three Brasileiro U20 home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. It's trouble wherever Fortaleza U20 are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.
The Fortaleza U20 crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Sao Paulo U20 here at Centro de Treinamento Ribamar Bezerra.
Heartbreak before that as Fortaleza lost 1-3 at Botafogo U20's place.Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 5 goals have been conceded.
Cruzeiro U20 form and stats
Things could have gone better for Cruzeiro U20 in their Brasileiro U20 away matches, but 5 points from 3 games is all right.
Impressive finishing secured the home win 6-0 against Uberlandia U20 in their previous game. Those three points felt sweet as this club had gone three league fixtures without winning. As mentioned above, Cruzeiro U20 was the only team on the pitch versus Uberlandia U20 in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task.
A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs America Mineiro U20.A bet on few goals? 5 league games in a row with this club have had at most two goals.
After this away game Cruzeiro U20 return home for a Mineiro U20 game against Araguari U20. That game is only four sleeps after this.
They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
