Fluminense vs Santos Predictions

An in-form Fluminense can maintain their winning form at the famous Maracana.

I'm putting my faith in a home win in Sunday's Serie A encounter.

Stats

Fluminense won 5 of their last 6 home matches
Fluminense won their last 3 matches
Fluminense won 3 of their last 4 home matches against Santos
Santos lost 2 of their last 3 matches
Santos lost 5 of their last 7 away matches

Head to Head

Fluminense and Santos have met 18 times over the past decade. Santos claimed seven wins with Fluminese victorious on six occasions.

Recent encounters have favoured Fluminense, with The Tricolor Flu Fluzão unbeaten in eight of their last nine encounters since 2018 (W4, D4, L1).

Fluminense Form

Fluminense extended their winning run to three matches with a dominant 5-0 victory against Gualberto Villarroel SJ in the Copa Libertadores last Thursday. Everaldo's first-half brace helped the Tricolor Flu to an easy win in Rio.

Renato Gaúcho's side began the month with a 1-0 road victory against Once Caldas, also in the Copa Libertadores, before a 2-1 success against RB Bragantino in their most recent Serie A encounter.

A tough side to beat in Rio, Fluminense lost only one of 16 previous home fixtures (W8, D7, L1).

Fluminense Team News

Head coach Renato Gaúcho has a handful of players unavailable this weekend. Guga, Otávio, Marcelo Pitaluga, Riquelme and Isaque remain sidelined with various injury issues.

Santos Form

Santos arrive in Rio now winless in three matches following an entertaining 2-2 draw against Bahia last weekend. Luciano Juba's stoppage-time goal denied the Peixe a first Serie A win since their return to Brazil's top flight.

Pedro Caixinha's side slipped to back-to-back 2-1 road defeats against Corinthians and Vasco da Gama in their two previous away fixtures.

A poor away record has seen Santos lose five and win just one of seven games on their travels this season.

Santos Team News

Santos boss Caixinha has three players unavailable for Sunday's Serie A contest. Souza, Hyan and Zé Rafael are tipped to miss out for the visitors.

Experienced forward Neymar has recovered from a muscle injury and is set to feature in the Peixe squad at the Maracana.

Verdict

Fluminense v Santos

Fluminense are in good form, and they can take advantage of a Santos side that has struggled on the road this year.

A home win is my best bet at the Maracana.
