The season has been a rollercoaster for these participants so far, both rise and fall leading to mid-table positions so far. Let's get ready for Fluminense - Corinthians!
- Fluminense have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
- Corinthians have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
