Analysis

Fortaleza is coming into this match not playing in great form recently as they have lost 3 of their last 5 matches with 1 win in that span, but 2 of those losses also came in Copa do Nordeste which is not a competition they are focused on with the Brasileirao and Copa Libertadores starting up. They were great in their opening Brasileirao match anyway, coming off of a 2-0 win at home against Fluminense. They were also very good in the Cearense this year as they went all the way to the Final, losing 2-1 on aggregate to Ceara. They have been much better at home though as they have won 3 of their last 5 matches there and they have kept clean sheets in all 3 of those wins as well. They are going up against a Racing Club side that is the Copa Sudamericana champion from last year, but they have not been in good form recently. They have not had a good start to the season in their domestic league at 4-1-6, and they have 3 losses in their last 6 matches as well. They are coming off of a 2-1 away loss in their last match to Independiente Rivadavia, and they have not been good away from home this season. When playing away from home, they have lost 2 of their last 4 matches with 1 win in that span and they have lost 4 of their last 7 away matches as well. This is a very big match since these are the two best teams in this group and this match could have huge implications on the group in the end. Fortaleza has been in much better form to start their season than Racing Club has been in, and they are always focused on these South American competitions so they are going to get up for this match to dominate the group right from the start. Fortaleza will win this match at home and collect all 3 points here. CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores: Fortaleza ML, Rot. 224610
