Sao Paulo, Recent FormThe São Paulo squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Cruzeiro, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 69%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to Cruzeiro, who had 6 shots on goal with 0 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Dorival Júnior will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 9 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
They have had an excellent run of form at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
Fluminense, Recent FormFluminense have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 2-1 home win against Bahia in their previous league match. In that game they had 48% possession and managed 17 attempts on goal, with 10 on target, compared to Bahia who had 15 attempts and 3 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Fernando Diniz will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games.
They have been enduring a less than rewarding period of form away from home at the moment, during which they have lost 3 and only picked up 2 wins from their last 6 matches.
With 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Germán Cano has given the travelling Fluminense support something to shout about on the road.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for São Paulo, losing 3-1 to Fluminense.
The stats show that in the last 3 meetings between Tricolor and their rivals, São Paulo, the former have conceded at least one goal.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met at Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo in the league, but São Paulo will take some small comfort in being unbeaten in their last 3 meetings there.
Luciano da Rocha Neves will be looking to get on the scoresheet for São Paulo against Fluminense in this one, having netted 3 goals in the previous 5 encounters between the two.
São Paulo manager Dorival Júnior has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. André Anderson (Groin), Jandrei Chitolina Carniel (Hand), Talles Costa (Meniscus), Welington Damascena Santos (Ankle), Giuliano Galoppo (Cruciate ligament), João Moreira (Knee) and Igor Vinícius (Groin) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Fernando Diniz has a number of injury concerns in his Fluminense squad to contend with: Jorge de Oliveira Moraes (Cruciate ligament), Alexsander Gomes da Costa (Thigh) and Felipe Melo (Knee)
