Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense Prediction, Preview, Statistics and Betting Tips: Away Side Have the Upper Hand over Vasco Da Gama
Both Vasco da Gama and Fluminense come into Saturday’s Brazilian Serie A fixture in erratic form. The away side will be confident of securing a victory, however, having beaten the hosts 3-0 on the last two occasions the teams met.
Match Preview
Our Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense preview begins with a review of the home side’s recent form – they have lost two of their last three games, one of which was a resounding 3-0 defeat to Saturday’s opponents in the Carioca 1. It must be acknowledged, however, that that brace of losses are the only defeats in ten for Vasco da Gama.
- Vasco da Gama 2-0 Botafogo - Carioca 1
- Fluminense 3-0 Vasco da Gama - Carioca 1
- Palmeiras 4-0 Vasco da Gama - Serie A
- Vasco da Gama 2-1 Bahia - Serie A
With two wins from seven fixtures ahead of our Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense predictions, manager Abel Braga will be keen to get his side back on track against a side they have enjoyed beating in recent meetings. In a gruelling calendar, Fluminense have played thirteen games since the start of April, a run that has been an energy-sapping ordeal for their players.
Fluminense have only managed to keep the opposition from scoring once in their last eight and they will need to start plugging some defensive leaks before they can really kick on.
- Liverpool 1-0 Fluminense - Copa Sudamericana
- Fluminense 3-2 Santos - Serie A
- Gremio 3-1 Fluminense - Copa do Brasil
- Atletico Mineiro 1-2 Fluminense - Serie A
Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense Prediction and Betting Advice
Our Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense picks must take into consideration the number of games the respective sides have played over the past few weeks. Vasco da Gama have only played twice so far in May, and while their players should be fresher, there also might be a little ring rustiness. As we detailed above, Fluminense are in the midst of a long run of games packed into a short space of time and tiredness will be seeping into their player’s legs.
These sides only met a month ago and Fluminense proved too strong for their opponents that day, running out 3-0 winners. A repeat of that score-line is probably too much to ask, but I can see the away side picking up three more points at the Estádio São Januário by a narrower margin.
