Sao Paulo vs Fluminense Prediction & Betting Tips (14 May)

Not only have Sao Paulo collected maximum points from 17 of their previous 21 top-flight home fixtures, but they have also done so in style, outscoring their opponents by a sensational 54 goals to five across these victories. Fluminense, meanwhile, have really struggled on the road of late, winning just once in nine trips at the top table of the Serie A.

Although Sao Paulo are capable of putting most teams to the sword in domestic competition, it is interesting to note that 17 of their last 20 Serie A games have served up no more than three goals. This has also been the case in 13 of the previous 17 top-flight fixtures involving Fluminense, so all the evidence points towards under 3.5 goals in this clash.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from five of the previous six Sao Paulo home games in the Serie A, so thrillers have been few and far between at the home Stadium. As for Fluminense, just four of their most recent 17 away matches at this level have produced goals at both ends, which doesn’t offer much hope.
