This is the Serie A season opener for these teams, who are finally competing for points again. Will São Paulo or Fluminense get that important first win?

It's no vacation for neither Paulo nor Fluminense as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

São Paulo form and stats

It's the first season at a new level for Paulo as they were promoted from Paulista A1 last season. Happy days that were secured through 8 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss from twelve games. The team scored 16 goals at home last season and conceded 4. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Paulo matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, two draws and four defeats (from nine games).

Paulo are traveling soon after this match as the Copa do Brasil match at 4 de Julho awaits in three days.

Fluminense form and stats

A job perfectly done for Fluminense last season as they secured promotion from Carioca 1. With a grand total of 7 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 4 were in away matches.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Fluminense playing away, we found two games. Results were one away win, zero draws and one home win.

After this away game Fluminense return home for a Copa do Brasil game against Bragantino. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Paulo five wins, three draws and Fluminense two victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
