Fortaleza vs Juventude Prediction and Betting Tips | June 30th 2024

The action continues in round 13 of Brasileiro Serie A as Fortaleza and Juventude square off at the Estádio Castelão on Sunday. Having failed to win the last eight meetings between the sides, Roger Machado’s men will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts and secure their first away win of the campaign.

Fortaleza turned in a superb attacking display on Wednesday as they cruised to a 3-0 victory over high-flying Palmeiras on home turf.

Juan Pablo Vojvoda’s side have won two of their last three matches since ending their three-match losing streak, with a 1-1 draw against Atletico Mineiro on June 23 sandwiched between the two victories.

With their midweek result, Fortaleza have now won five consecutive home games across all competitions, scoring nine goals and keeping four clean sheets since a 1-1 draw against Botafogo on May 12.

Meanwhile, Juventude continued their dominance on home turf as they picked up a 2-1 victory over Flamengo at the Estádio Alfredo Jaconi on Wednesday.

While Machado’s men have now gone unbeaten in nine home matches on the bounce, they head into the weekend without a win in their last six away matches across all competitions.

With 17 points from 11 matches, Juventude are currently 11th in the Serie A table, one point and one place above Sunday’s hosts.
