It’s all or not for Ceará. Playing in Ressacada, in Santa Catarina, Vozão faces Avaí, at 19:00 (Brasília time), for the 37th round of the Brazilian Championship.

However, Juca Antonello is missing seven athletes: Michel Macedo (knee ligament injury), Lucas Ribeiro (knee ligament injury), Messias (muscle injury), Rodrigo Lindoso (knee tendinitis), Diego Rigonato (muscle discomfort), Matheus Peixoto (physiotherapy treatment) and Zé Roberto (suspended).
