Fluminense form and stats

Fluminense have played 16 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-5-6 (wins-draws-losses). Fluminense have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

In their previous game, the manager Marcão led his Fluminense to a defeat in the Serie A match away at Internacional. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio do Maracana. A strong away win before that one, visiting São Paulo and winning 2-0.

This is expected to be a close game, with Fluminense perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Fluminense as a small favourite), we find eight games. Fluminense has won 1 of these, drawn 4 and lost 3.

The Fluminense fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 16 matches. From these home matches, Fluminense have conceded only 14 goals.
