APWin Prediction

Double Chance: Fortaleza or Draw

APWin experts have analysed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: Fortaleza to win the 1st half

While the half-time market is not a particularly popular betting market, it does provide a good deal of value. And this is true for Fortaleza vs Vitória, where we have Fortaleza to win the first half as our best bet.

Fortaleza has been quite a fast starter at home as they quickly put the pressure on their visitors in the opening minutes. That strategy should lead to a Fortaleza taking an advantage into half-time.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

After scanning the different markets for Fortaleza vs Vitória, we find that under 9.5 corners is the most eye-catching bet based on the playing profile of the two sides.

We don't foresee much free-flowing attacking football from the two teams, which will greatly reduce the chances of them winning the 10 total corners required to sink this bet.
