Fluminense – the shape of the team and its analysis:
“The Tricolor” won the Copa Libertadores last year for the first time in its history. Speaking about the new cycle of this tournament, the Brazilian club is also very good. It has taken 14 points in 6 matches, winning the group by a margin.
As for the Serie A, the situation was bad and only got worse in the summer. There was 1 win and 4 points in 4 matches in April, and it seemed like a failure. Still, then there was 1 draw each in May and June, and then there happened a series of complete defeats that pushed them to the very bottom of the table. A 0-1 score resulted in the replacement of the coach by the mentor from Flamengo.
Vitoria Salvador – the shape of the team and its analysis:
“Barra’s Lion” won the Serie B in 2023. Still, they were initially viewed at a higher level as underdogs. And indeed, they started with a single draw (a 2-2 score in the home battle against Bahia) and 5 defeats. At the same time, the team was eliminated from the cup.
The club improved its performance in the summer. First there were a couple of draws, with Cuiaba and Juventude. And the long-awaited first victory was taken in the middle of the month – a 2-1 success in the struggle with Internacional. It became possible due to Wagner’s goal from the penalty spot in the 12th added minute of the game. There also happened a win in the match against Atlético Mineiro. Still, the confrontation with Red Bull Bragantino brought a misfire – 1-2.
