Ceara vs Vila Nova FC tips and predictions

Hosts criminally short price

With a handful of points between them, it's eigth placed Ceara hosting third placed Vila Nova FC in this Serie B clash as the visitors look to add digits to the 6-point gap that separates the sides.

The short Ceara price has made them totally unbackable. Vila Nova FC can upset the odds here but it's really not a confident prediction.

The hosts are widely picked to win but they can be beaten. Ceara's performances against live opponents have raised some questions. They conceded at least once in 17 of their last 20 home matches and if they have any selection issues they could be vulnerable again here.

While it is a dreadful match-up for them, the visitors might cause a shock here. Vila Nova FC have notably won 5 of their last 7 campaigns. Most of their wins have been summarised by how clinical they've been in front of goal. They've scored three or more goals in 2 of their last 6 games. To have the slightest chance they'll need to add to that number. It'll be some performance if they manage that.

Alternatively there's a reasonable separate bet in the BTTS market with the Yes option.

The head-to-head shows that Vila Nova FC have won 2 of the last 3 matches between the two teams.
