Fluminense vs Victoria prediction 27.06.2024

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: 27th June 2024
• Kickoff: 23:00 UTC +1
• Venue: Maracanã

Fluminense will be looking to register what will be only their second win of the Brazilian top flight campaign when they welcome Vitoria to Rio de Janeiro on Thursday night.

The hosts have had very little to celebrate so far this season. Fernando Diniz’s side sit at the bottom of the standings after managing just six points from eleven games and have tasted victory only once. That’s surprising for a sad that has finished each of the last four campaigns in the top four. However, the team of Warriors will get encouragement ahead of Vitoria’s visit this week from the fact that their record against Vitoria is actually good – unbeaten in six.

Vitoria sit just three points above their hosts. That’s kind of better considering that they only got promoted from the second division at the end of last season. Thiago Carpini’s side last game on the road saw them suffer a 2-1 defeat to Bragantino last time out, but that was their first loss in three away games.  

Fluminense vs Vitoria Betting Tips: Both teams to score

One of the major reasons Fluminense are languishing at the bottom of the standings is their defence. Tricolor Flu Fluzão enter this week’s game with a run of six consecutive games without a clean sheet across all competitions and shipped exactly 2 goals in two of the last three encounters.

Vitoria have taken part in some of the most entertaining games in the Brazilian top flight lately. All the visitors’ last three games ended with at least 3 goals and bets on over 2.5 goals were won in all three matches.
