Portuguesa RJ form and stats

0 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss. That’s the product of Portuguesa RJ playing as the away team in the Carioca Serie A this season. One point away has become something of a habit for Portuguesa RJ who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Portuguesa has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Nova Iguaçu for a 1-1 draw.

That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus Volta Redonda.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Portuguesa RJ as they have only managed to score 3 times from 4 away games in the league. Portuguesa RJ's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

As for the last nine games between these two teams, there's six Fluminense victories, two draws and one Portuguesa RJ win. Over/under statistics; five of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
