Vasco vs Fortaleza Prediction & Betting Tips (4 July)

Fortaleza bring some phenomenal form into this fixture, having secured 13 victories in their last 18 Serie A matches, including five in a row recently. The picture has been a very different one as far as Vasco are concerned of late, with a run of seven defeats in nine games doing little to boost their survival chances in what threatens to be a hard-fought battle.

Fortaleza have featured seven times at the top table of the Serie A so far this season, with every single one of these clashes delivering three goals or fewer. It has been a similar story as far as Vasco are concerned, as six of their seven top-flight fixtures have served up under 3.5 goals, so more of the same is expected when these two teams square off against each other.

Over the course of their last 19 Serie A matches, Fortaleza have kept an impressive tally of 14 clean sheets, so finding a way through against Fortaleza can prove difficult. Given that just three of the most recent 13 top-flight fixtures involving Vasco have served up goals at both ends of the pitch, it is hard to see much of a deviation from the script.
