Fortaleza

In their last match, Fortaleza secured a 2-0 victory at home against Alianza Lima. This result marked their second win in the group stage, keeping them in contention for a spot in the knockout rounds. Fortaleza has demonstrated strong defensive capabilities, conceding only one goal in their last three matches across all competitions. To maintain their position in the group, Fortaleza will aim for another solid performance at home.


  • The team has won their last three home matches in the Copa Libertadores, scoring at least two goals in each game.
  • Fortaleza has kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 5 home matches in this tournament.
  • The number "2" has appeared in the scoreline at the end of regular time in 3 of Fortaleza's last 4 home matches in the Copa Libertadores.

Colo-Colo

Colo-Colo enters this match following a 1-1 draw away to River Plate. The Chilean side has struggled to find consistency in their performances, with just one win in their last four matches across all competitions. However, they remain in the hunt for a top-two finish in the group, needing a positive result in this fixture to bolster their chances of advancing.


  • The team has not won in regular time in their last four away matches in the Copa Libertadores (2 draws, 2 losses).
  • No more than two goals have been scored in 90 minutes in 5 of Colo-Colo's last 7 away games in this tournament.
  • At least one of the opponents failed to score in regular time in 4 of Colo-Colo's last 6 away matches in the Copa Libertadores.

Fortaleza vs. Colo-Colo: Match Prediction

Fortaleza has shown resilience at home, capitalizing on their strong defensive organization. Meanwhile, Colo-Colo has struggled to find form away from home, which could be a decisive factor in this encounter. With both teams needing a result to improve their standings, this match promises to be a tactical battle.


Considering all factors, I do not expect this match to be high-scoring. My prediction: Total under 3.5 goals
