General match analysis
Fluminense are clearly stronger at home: they have won 69% of their home matches, losing only 8% of them, while Vasco have not recorded a single away win. The hosts create significantly more high-quality chances, averaging 2.05 xG and 6.92 shots on target per home game, compared with Vasco’s 1.53 xG and 4.09 shots on target away from home. The defensive contrast further strengthens the case: Fluminense concede 1.08 goals per home match, while Vasco concede as many as 1.91, keeping a clean sheet in just 9% of their away fixtures. Both teams have averaged 1.8 points per game across their last five matches, but Fluminense remain unbeaten during this period, recording 2 wins and 3 draws. Vasco have scored 9 goals in their last five appearances, but their poor away form and the hosts’ significant advantage in chance creation point towards a Fluminense win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Seasonal statistics strongly support goals from both sides: BTTS occurred in 62% of Fluminense’s matches and in as many as 73% of Vasco da Gama’s games, compared with the league average of 59%. In their last five matches, Fluminense recorded BTTS in 80% of cases, while Vasco did so in 60%; during this period, both teams averaged 1.8 goals per match. The hosts create an average of 2.10 xG and register 6.15 shots on target, while Vasco produces 1.53 xG, providing a solid basis for both sides to find the net. The defences are not particularly tight: Fluminense concede an average of 1.38 goals per season, Vasco 1.91, while clean sheets for the two teams occur in just 8% and 9% of matches, respectively. The BTTS - Yes scenario is therefore stronger than the outcome in which at least one team fails to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Fluminense and Vasco have high rates of matches featuring at least 2 goals: 77% and 73%, respectively, which strongly supports Over 1.5. In their last five matches, both teams averaged 1.8 goals scored, while their games produced an average of 3.2 goals for Fluminense and 3.6 goals for Vasco. The home side creates an average of 2.10 xG and registers 6.15 shots on target per match, while Vasco concedes an average of 1.91 goals, so Fluminense should have solid attacking potential. Vasco also has a case for scoring, with an average xG of 1.53, while Fluminense had conceded in 92% of its matches. The Over 1.5 line is the safest choice, as it combines both teams’ seasonal consistency with their clearly high-scoring form in recent matches.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a Fluminense win at full-time, as both teams tend to score few goals before the break: the hosts average 0.31 goals in the first half, while Vasco average 0.27. A draw after 45 minutes occurred in 80% of Fluminense’s last five matches and in 60% of Vasco’s recent games, while across Vasco’s full away sample, the rate of such draws is as high as 55%. After the break, the hosts’ advantage should increase: Fluminense average 0.92 goals in the second half, whereas Vasco concede 1.27 goals away from home after half-time. The hosts also have clearly superior chance-creation metrics, with an xG of 2.10 compared with 1.53 and 6.15 shots on target per match compared with 4.09. The case for a Fluminense win in the final result is further supported by their average of 1.54 points per match and a 46% win rate, compared with just 0.45 points and a 0% win rate for Vasco in away matches.
