Ceará vs América Mineiro prediction: expert analysis, possible lineups, November 9, 2026
Serie B Brazil
On November 9, 2026, Ceará and América Mineiro will face off in the 37th round of Brazil’s Serie B. The hosts will be determined to win their final “home” fixture.
Ceará vs América Mineiro team news and expert analysis
The Fortaleza-based club was relegated from Serie A at the end of last season. And they have looked extremely poor even at this lower level. It was fortunate that they enjoyed a spell in the autumn with three wins in four matches. But then came a slump, including defeats to both Goiás and Athletic Club in their most recent fixtures.
The team from Belo Horizonte finished 14th here in 2025 with 38 points. But they are nowhere near matching even that result this time around, suffering far too many defeats. In the autumn, they endured six straight losses, managing to beat only Operário, 1-0. However, they then followed that up with consecutive victories over Cuiabá and Londrina.
The footballers who were playing in the Brasileirão a year ago are now scoring just 1.06 goals per game here while conceding 1.28. One of the relegation candidates averages only 0.72 goals scored away from home and 1.53 conceded.
