Vasco da Gama vs Fluminense: match statistics
Fluminense are in significantly better form and league position (3rd place) compared to Vasco da Gama (15th place). The visitors have a clearly better points per game over the last five matches (1.6 PPG vs 1.0 PPG) and a positive away goal difference (+1), while the hosts have a zero goal difference at home. Fluminense have not had a single away match without scoring (FTS% 0%), which demonstrates their offensive efficiency, whereas Vasco da Gama have not kept a single clean sheet at home (CS% 0%). Despite the hosts having an advantage in possession (60% vs 63%) and a higher average xG (2.5 vs 1.75), their poor conversion rate (4% shot conversion) and overall form (only 1 win this season) speak in favor of the visitors. Considering all statistics, Fluminense have a realistic chance of securing three points, although a draw cannot be ruled out due to the even form of both teams over the last five matches.
