Ceara v Bragantino
Friday 23:30
The boys from Brazil couldn't get it done.
Well, some of them of could, but half of them couldn't. Santos 1 Bahia 0.
Our punishment is relegation. To Brazil's Serie B, where promotion-chasing Ceara are tonight entertaining relegation-threatened Bragantino.
Fourteen of Ceara's last 17 games in Fortaleza have delivered Over 2.5 Goals. Grandpa (that's right, though Big Grandpa is an accepted alternative) has scored in a perfect 26/26 home games under Sergio Soares and hit the back of the net twice or more in 17/26.
Grandpa is a little leaky at the back, however, failing to keep a clean sheet in 17/20.
In pursuit of three points, Bragantino have lately thrown caution to the wind, striking eight times in their last four away matches. The price they've had to pay? Seven goals against in those games. In total this season, 7/13 of their road games have produced Over 2.5 Goals.
Perhaps the geriatrics from Brazil can get it done.
