Vasco da Gama Preview – Can Vasco da Gama win back-to-back?
A recent and much-needed 2-0 win away from home at Sport Recife saw Vasco da Gama end a miserable run of nine matches without a win in the Brazilian top flight which also included seven defeats, but they’ll be keen on making it two wins on the trot here.
That win also prevented Vasco da Gama from dropping down into the relegation zone but the hosts are still perched just above the bottom four with only goal difference separating them from the drop zone ahead of this clash against Fortaleza.
However, the hosts are without a win from their last five matches at home, losing four of these with defeats to Atletico GO, Flamengo, Corinthians and Palmeiras but they’re unbeaten in their last five meetings at home against Fortaleza, winning the last three on the trot.
Fortaleza Preview – Can Fortaleza end losing streak?
12th placed Fortaleza were seemingly cruising to at least a top 12 position in the Brazilian top flight as they put together an impressive and solid looking eight-match unbeaten sequence which included wins against Sport Recife, Internacional, Atletico Mineiro and Palmeiras but the visitors have since seen their form take an alarming turn for the worse.
Four defeats on the trot to Fluminense, Athletico PR, Bahia and Sao Paulo have seriously threatened Fortaleza’s place in the top 12 and a possible place in the Sudamericana, and the previously mentioned four wins were all recorded at home too.
On the road, Fortaleza are without a win from their last eight matches while their away record stands at a meagre looking 1-4-5 9/12 with their one success on their travels being a 3-1 win at rock-bottom outfit, Goias.
