Match Stats

Under Juan Pablo Vojvoda's guidance, Fortaleza recently drew 1-1 with Criciuma, following a match where they struggled to convert numerous scoring opportunities. Juan Martin Lucero's 63rd-minute goal canceled out Miguel Trauco's opener, ensuring they extended their unbeaten streak to five matches. This run includes four wins and one draw since their last defeat, a 2-0 loss to Vasco da Gama on July 2.

Key to Fortaleza's success has been their dominance at home, boasting a nine-game winning streak and remaining unbeaten in 17 consecutive matches at their stadium since a March defeat in the Copa do Nordeste.

Meanwhile, Sao Paulo displayed resilience in their recent outing, rallying from behind to secure an exhilarating 2-2 draw with Botafogo at Estadio do Morumbi. Despite conceding an early goal to Lucas Moura, Sao Paulo responded with strikes from Tiquinho Soares and Cuiabano. Aldemir Ferreira's goal in the 60th minute ensured they earned a deserved point.

With 32 points from 19 matches, Luis Zubeldia's squad currently occupies sixth place in the Serie A standings, level on points with fifth-placed Cruzeiro and just one point behind this weekend's opponents, Fortaleza.
