With their 12 point advantage in the league table, Grêmio fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Ceará.

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 Grêmio and Ceará.

Ceará have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2600 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Ceará form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ceará, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) away in Serie A, so far with only 5 Serie A points returning home. The records show 1-2-8 (win-draw-lose). Ceará has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

A quick return to home after this game, as Ceará are hosting Avaí in the Serie A only four days away.

The attacking power of Ceará when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 11 league matches away. 14 goals have been conceded by Ceará in these games.
