What Ceará’s first halves look like
Ceará attack the first half better than they guard it: 3rd of 28 in the division for scoring before halftime, 24th for keeping the other side out. Ceará are close to two different sides either side of the coach door: a first-half goal of their own in 54.9% of home matches, 36.0% of away ones, 18.9pp between them.
The back line is a different proposition on the road: 58.0% of away matches bring an early goal against Ceará, next to 39.2% at home. Ceará top the Serie B list of 28 published clubs for the share of their first halves that produce a goal.
A second goal before the break is close to routine here: 34.7% of Ceará’s matches manage it against 26.5% for the division. First halves here rarely stop at one: where Ceará’s matches produce an early goal, a second follows 49% of the time, against 42% across the division.
Every figure on this page rests on 101 completed Ceará matches over 3 seasons (2023 to 2026). That is enough to separate a clear tendency from noise, and not enough to split it much further by venue or opponent.

How to read these numbers
- These are historical rates over pooled seasons, not a forecast. A club that has changed manager, division or squad reads as the average of every version of itself on record.
- The opponent matters as much as the club. A high-scoring side against a defense that rarely concedes early is a different fixture from the same side against one that does.
