Vasco da Gama will be keen to put their previous loss in the Brazilian top flight away from home at Fluminense behind them when they return to the home surroundings of their Estádio Săo Januário for this upcoming clash against high-flying Bragantino in this weekend’s Serie A action.
Vasco da Gama had previously slipped to a 2-1 loss on the road at Fluminense which also became a fifth away defeat on the trot and indeed a fifth loss within their last seven games overall in the Brazilian top flight.
The hosts had collected a 3-0 home win against Fortaleza in their last appearance on home soil though where Fernando Diniz’s side have also picked up earlier wins this season against the likes of Santos and Sport Recife within a home record which currently stands at 3-1-1 8/3.
The wider picture shows Vasco da Gama have suffered just three losses in their last 20 home games.
Bragantino currently sit in 4th place in the Serie A standings having picked up six wins within their opening 10 matches of this new domestic top flight campaign, four of which have been registered on home soil at their Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid.
The visitors head into this upcoming encounter at the Estádio Săo Januário on the back of a 1-0 home win against Juventude and having slipped to just two defeats so far in this season’s campaign, Fernando Seabra’s side will be confident they can maintain their position in the top four of the table with a result here.
However, despite picking up early season wins on the road at Sport Recife and Santos, Bragantino have managed to capture just three victories from their last 19 outings on the road in Serie A, along with being dealt 10 defeats in the process.
The Betting Verdict
Vasco da Gama are unbeaten in each of their previous seven meetings at home against Bragantino.
The Pick :
Vasco da Gama 2-1 Bragantino
