Ceará has asked the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) to change the venue of the match against Ponte Preta. Originally scheduled for Presidente Vargas Stadium, the game will now be played at Arena Castelão, marking Vozão’s return to the main stage of Ceará football after nearly 70 days.

Alvinegro’s last match at Castelão took place on May 31, against Operário/PR, in a clash valid for the 11th round of the Brazilian Serie B Championship.

The match will take place on August 7 (Friday), at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time). Check-ins and ticket sales will begin soon.

With 22 points, the Porangabuçu side sits in 16th place in the Brazilian Serie B Championship and is looking to bounce back to move closer to the top half of the table.
