Fluminense Criciúma betting prediction

The home team is currently in the 16^th position of the league, with 37 points won, after 10 wins, 8 draws and 16 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Internacional, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Fortaleza, by (2‑2). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 1 draw and 10 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium. For the league, Fluminense won 19 points out of 30 possible points, after 5 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss in the last 10 home matches. In their home league matches there are a few frequent results at half‑time: 0‑0 (7 out of 17 matches) and 1‑0 (7 out of 17 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. 11 of their last 17 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 15 of their 34 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 17 home matches for this competition there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 7 of their 19 goals between minutes (31'‑45'); they have conceded 6 of their 16 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Fighting to distance itself from the relegation zone, Fluminense sees this match as decisive. Playing at home, the team is expected to take a more offensive approach, aiming to pressure the opponent from the start. The intensity and support of the crowd could be key factors in securing the three points. However, maintaining defensive concentration will be essential to avoid being caught on the counter-attacks of Criciúma. The win is crucial to ease the pressure in the final stretch of the championship.
