Fluminense take on the visitors Vitoria at “Maracana” in the matchday four of the Brazilian Serie A. The game will be played in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday, June 4th.
Fluminense lost their form: the side recorded three victories, one draw and six defeats in 10 last encounters. Last Thursday, they were knocked out by Gremio from the Copa do Brasil without any chances: after 1:3 away loss, Fluminense were beaten in face of their fans as well with 0:2 scoreline. Meanwhile, in the Serie A Fluminense picked up six points in three rounds being just one point away from the leaders. Despite all its recent failures, in 2017 “Fluzao” was broken only three times in 17 clashes at its own turf.

Vitoria show much weaker performance in this season that their rival. The team’s run without victories has reached six games and Vitoria managed to score only one goal, get one draw and three defeats during that run. As a result, “Leaos da Barra” share the 17th-19th places in the table of the Serie A with one points earned and 0-2 goal difference after three matchdays. In 2017 Vitoria participated in 16 clashes on the road recording eight triumphs, six draws and only two losses in them. Those results can be named gratifying, however, the team failed to win in last five away encounters recording four draws and one defeat in them.
The opponents’ head-to-head statistic is very curious: Vitoria were not broken by Fluminense across six recent games resulting in three victories in favour of the side from Salvador and three draws. I believe that on Sunday those series will come to an end as Vitoria showed extremely poor performance in last clashes.
Prediction for the match: Fluminense to win.
