Sport had more possession (57.8%) and shots (16 total, 8 on target) compared to Fortaleza (42.2% possession, 10 total shots, 1 on target), however, they were unable to capitalize. Fortaleza's goalkeeper had a busy day, making 8 saves. The match saw few cards issued until the very end, with Titi of Fortaleza receiving a red card in the 98th minute.
Considering the statistics, Sport was the more dominant team, creating more opportunities. The draw probability predicted before the game was 27.5%, which shows that the AI underestimated the possiblity of that outcome. This result could be seen as a missed opportunity for Sport to gain valuable points at home, while Fortaleza, despite playing with ten men at the end, will be satisfied with the away point.
Sport's recent form has been poor, with four losses and one draw in their last five league games. Fortaleza has also struggled, with two losses and three draws in their last five matches. This draw extends both teams' winless streaks.
Looking ahead, Sport faces a tough away game against Fluminense, who have been in good form, winning 3 and drawing 2 of their last 5 matches. Historically, Fluminense has had the upper hand in head-to-head matches against Sport. Fortaleza will visit Sâo Paulo, who are also in good form, with three wins and two draws in their last five matches. The head-to-head record between Sâo Paulo and Fortaleza is relatively balanced.
Considering their recent form and upcoming opponents, both Sport and Fortaleza need to improve their performances significantly to secure positive results in their next matches. Sport, in particular, needs to find a way to convert their possession into goals. Fortaleza will need to be more disciplined, as their red card today demonstrates a lack of composure.
On April 26, 2025, Sport will face Fortaleza at the Ilha do Retiro in Recife, Brazil, for a Brazilian Serie A match. According to AI predictions, Fortaleza is favored to win, despite playing away. The AI gives Fortaleza a 40.0% chance of winning, compared to Sport's 32.5%, with a 27.5% chance of a draw.
Sport has been struggling recently, losing their last four league games and drawing one. In contrast, Fortaleza has drawn three of their last five games, with one loss in Brazilian Serie A, and another loss playing for CONMEBOL Libertadores. Last head-to-head games show a slight advantage to Fortaleza. Fortaleza's key player, veteran midfielder Lucas Sasha, will be crucial in controlling the game's tempo. Also, look out for striker Moisés Vieira, known for his clinical finishing. Sport will rely on their goalkeeper, Renan, to keep Fortaleza's attack at bay, since their defense has been conceding too many goals recently. The AI's prediction suggests a challenging match for Sport, needing a significant change in form to overcome Fortaleza's higher win probability.
