Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Fans may not be thrilled to read this, but it's all-but impossible to predict a goal-fest here. The statistics suggest Fortaleza and Santos both can struggle to find the net on occasion, and the odds are leaning towards there being fewer than 2 goals in total as they go head-to-head. We think that's a great shout and, with no obvious outright winners to back, under 2.5 goals feels like the right bet on this match.

Goal Statistics

Santos's defensive record is very strong, C. Serpa Xavier's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Serie A outings. An average PG rating of 1.4 for Fortaleza makes sense in this context.

An absolutely awful PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Santos fans, as should a 7 Serie A games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
