Fortaleza and Cuiabá are eager to let the world see their new recruits and skills: It's the first match of the Serie A season.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 3000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Fortaleza and Cuiabá.

Fortaleza form and stats

The previous season, Fortaleza's league statistics were 17 wins, 7 draws and 14 losses, leading to 4th position in the Serie A. Over these 38 matches they scored 44 goals and gave away 45. Appearing at their own stadium in the previous season Fortaleza delivered 11-4-4 (win-draw-lost) with 26 goals and 19 conceded.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Fortaleza matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, one draw and zero defeats (from four games).

The manager Vojvoda will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to River Plate in only three days.

Cuiabá form and stats

A job perfectly done for Cuiabá last season as they secured promotion from Matogrossense. With a grand total of 17 wins, 10 draws and 11 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 5 were in away matches.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Cuiabá playing away, we found five games. Results were zero away wins, two draws and three home wins.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Copa Sudamericana trip to Racing Club.

Head 2 Head

Previous ten meetings featuring these teams: Fortaleza won four, Cuiabá were winners in two and we saw four draws. three games with more than 2,5 goals, seven matches with two goals or less.
