Ceara and Bahia set to finish all square
Ceará SC vs Bahia - 17/06/2021
3120
On Thursday night, Ceara and Bahia meet at the Estadio Governador Placido Aderaldo Castelo in Serie A, as both teams look to push up the Brazilian top-flight table.
Ceara could not have had a more inconsistent start to their Serie A campaign. The home side started their league campaign with a 3-2 win over Gremio, before losing against Santos 3-1 and drawing 0-0 with Chapecoense last time out.
The mixed results leave Ceara in midtable. The defeat against Santos actually ended a three-game winning run for Ceara in Serie A dating back to last season.
The draw against Chapecoense also ended a prolific run of form in front of goal, as they had scored at least two goals in their previous three league matches.
Despite winning their last two league matches on home soil, Ceara have a mixed recent record at home in Serie A, winning just three of their last 11 matches.
Bahia have a similar record to the home team so far this season, picking up four points from their first three league games. They opened their campaign with a 3-0 home win over Santos, before a draw against RB Bragantino and a 1-0 defeat against Internacional last time out.
The defeat in their last game ended a prolific run of scoring for the visitors in the Brazilian top-flight, as they had scored at least two goals in their previous four league matches dating back to last season.
Bahia have a mixed recent away record in Serie A, as although they are unbeaten in four matches on their travels, they have also won just one of their previous ten league games on the road.
The recent history of this fixture is certainly against Bahia, as they have lost four of their last five meetings with Ceara, although they did win the last game between the pair.
Forebet predicts that this game between two relatively evenly matched teams will produce a high-scoring draw.
