Cuiaba vs Ceara Prediction and Betting Tips - 18th June 2022

The Brasileiro Serie A returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Cuiaba play host to Ceara at the Arena Pantanal on Saturday.

The Alvinegro Cearense will head into the game seeking to get one over the hosts, having failed to win any of the last three meetings between the sides since 2011.

Cuiaba continued to struggle for consistency as they fell to a 2-0 loss at the hands of Flamengo this week.

They have now failed to win six of their last seven outings in all competitions, claiming two draws and losing four games in that time.

Cuiaba are currently 18th in the Brasileiro Serie A standings after picking up 12 points from 12 games so far.

Ceara, on the other hand, were involved in a share of the spoils for the third time in four games as they played out a goalless draw with Atletico Mineiro last time out.

However, they are now unbeaten in 11 straight outings, stretching back to a 1-0 loss to Athletico Paranaense on May 8.

With 15 points from 12 games, Ceara are currently 15th in the league table, but could rise as high as seventh place with all three points this weekend.
