Both teams are only narrowly above the relegation line, but the margin is much thinner for Guto Ferreira's men, who have been challenging to break down and compact at home, and we expect their desperation will propel them to three points on Wednesday.
Coritiba will be hoping for an improvement in performance, after they suffered a 2-0 loss away to Botafogo in their last game. Coxa will be glad to be playing at home as they have won their last two matches at the Estádio Couto Pereira. They currently sit 16th in the league table. Ceara are just three points above the drop zone and know a win here would see them move six points clear of their opponents. Last time out, they suffered a 2-0 home loss, in a match which saw them reduced to nine men. Ceara will need to improve their discipline if they want anything from this clash. 1:1
Ceara have drawn their last 3 away matches (Brasileirão). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 8 of Ceara's last 9 away games (Brasileirão). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Coritiba's last 4 games (Brasileirão).
Adrían Martínez can make a return after being suspended. Diego Porfirio is a doubt with an injury. Luiz Otávio, Zé Roberto, Nino Paraíba and Gabriel Lacerda are all suspended. Jael, Peixoto and Pacheco miss out through injury.
