Wednesday evening brings us action from the Brazilian top flight and features the clash between Santos and Fluminense at the Estádio Urbano Caldeira as Santos look to improve upon their ailing fortunes.
Santos find themselves sitting in a disappointing 17th place in the Serie A standings and indeed have now dropped into the relegation zone after picking up just one win out of their last 13 matches overall, that being a rare highlight in the shape of a 1-0 home win against Gremio.
Five defeats and seven draws though have outweighed Santos’s minimal success while also winning just one of their last seven games at home as well.
Fluminense have jumped into 8th place having recently posted back-to-back wins against Athletico PR and Flamengo in 1-0 and 3-1 victories respectively, and they’ll no doubt fancy their chances at Santos too on Wednesday night.
The bigger picture shows Fluminense have suffered just two defeats out of their last 12 matches overall in the Brazilian top flight and having captured six league wins during this period, Fluminense look the more likely to make something happen against Santos.
The visitors hold a decent record against Santos in previous exchanges in recent times and with the likes of Henrique (4 goals) along with Fred, Bobadilla and Lucca (3 goals apiece), in their attacking personnel, Fluminense look in good shape to get a result at the Estádio Urbano Caldeira on Wednesday night.
The Betting Verdict
Fluminense are unbeaten in their last four meetings against Santos and the visitors look set to get something out of this encounter too.
The Pick :
Santos 0-1 Fluminense
