----------------------------------------
Fluminense: Three straight defeats (Recent Form: LLLDWW)
Fluminense are on 11th place in Brazilian Serie A with 14 points (4 wins, 2 draws, 5 losses; goal difference 14:16). They are currently on a Copa Sudamericana spot, having 5 points of advantage over 17th Atletico-PR (relegation zone), whereas the distance to 6th Palmeiras (Copa Libertadores qualification) is 4 points at the moment. Team is in poor shape – 1 win, 1 draw, 3 losses in last 5 league matches, being on a 3-game losing run so they need to bounce back quickly. Fluminense take on Santos on Thursday in the next league fixture. Fluminense have collected 10 points in 5 home games to date (3 wins, 1 draw, 1 defeat; goal difference 7:4).
Santos: Bad away statistics (Recent Form: LDWLLD)
Santos sit on 16th position in the standings with 10 points (3 wins, 1 draw, 6 defeats; goal difference 13:16). They are now 1 point ahead of the drop zone, whereas Santos are 4 points short of 12th Botafogo RJ (Copa Sudamericana spot), with 1 game in hand. Their recent form are poor – 1 win, 1 draw, 3 defeats in last 5 games in Serie A. Now it’s time for away encounter. Santos have collected only 1 point in 5 matches on the road to date (0 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses; goal difference 2:10), so there’s room for improvement.
THE BETTING VERDICT:
All in all, I think that this might be an interesting clash with a couple of goals. Fluminense should be determined to bounce back in front of their fans after the 3 losses in a row. On the other hand, Santos need to raise their performance, especially on the road. In my opinion a few goals may be scored in this outing.
