Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense Live Stream & Predictions – Away Win is Tipped in the Brazilian Cup
Vasco da Gama has not won a domestic match since early May and is likely struggling with fatigue following a mid-week Copa Sudamericana fixture. These factors could make it challenging for them to perform against Fluminense in their upcoming match. The recommendation is to back Fluminense for the win, given their relatively superior form and physical condition entering the game.

Key Stats
- Vasco da Gama have lost 5 of their last 9 matches.
- Fluminense have won 6 of their last 11 matches.
Hosts Lead H2H
This is going to be the 57th time these two sides lock horns, Vasco de Gama having a 23-13 advantage in terms of victories, while 20 encounters ended without a winner.
Changes Didn't Bring Improvement for Vasco
Vasco da Gama haven’t been consistent in Serie A in the last couple of rounds. After losing to Atletico MG 1-0 just before the summer break, they returned to action with another 1-0 defeat to Vitoria in mid-July.
This forced them to make some changes, appointing Portuguese expert Pedro Emanuel as the new manager.
The last attempt to end this negative run was last weekend at home against Mirassol, but barely snatched a point in a 1-1 draw thanks to Andres Gomez’s late equalizer.
They have been successful in the Copa Sudamericana though, eliminating Independiente Medellin to reach the Round of 16. After a 2-2 draw in Colombia in the first leg, Vasco won at home 1-0 in mid-week. Thiago Mendes was the hero with his goal in the 85th minute.
Fluminense Tough to Beat This Season
Fluminense are having a decent run in the Brazilian Serie A this season, losing just five out of 21 matches and currently hold 4th place.
Their only appearance in June was a 1-1 home draw against Fluminense, while returning from the summer break with two more stalemates with the same scoreline against Bragantino and Gremio.
During the mid-week action, Fluminense hosted Bahia, generated 2.39 xG and fired 25 shots yet failed to find the net, the game ending in a goalless draw.
Team News
Thiago Mendes is suspended for Vasco da Gama, while they have no injured players at the moment.
Julian Millan (hamstring), Jemmes (muscle problem) and Thiago Silva (suffered a knock during mid-week) are unavailable for the visitors.
Verdict
Vasco da Gama are winless in their domestic matches since early May and might struggle with fitness after an exhausting Copa Sudamericana clash in mid-week. I am backing Fluminense to win here.
