Home comforts could prove vital for Paulo Sao as they host Fluminese at the Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo in the Brazilian A series this weekend.

Placed 11th and 5th respectively, but separated by a mere three points, a competitive contest can be expected with Paulo Sao keen to build on an excellent run of results in front of their own support in a fixture that so often proved an entertaining one in recent seasons. 

Paulo Sao vs Fluminese Betting Tips: BTTS / Paulo Sao to win

While Paulo Sao have endured a somewhat inconsistent opening to the Brazlian season, the home side does boast an excellent record at the Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo. While they have managed to win just five of 12 league games this season, all five victories came at this venue. 

In fact, if we look back a little further, the Tricolor Paulista have won eight and lost just two of their last ten home matches (all competitions), including a 2:0 midweek Libertadores Copa victory against Tigre. By comparison, Paulo Sao have failed to win any of their last six away league outings. 

Now facing a Fluminese side that has lost five and drawn one of their six most recent away matches, Paulo Sao will surely see this fixture as a great opportunity to extend their winning sequence at the Estádio Cícero Pompeu de Toledo.

The h2h record for this game is especially instructive for goalies, even though those stats undoubtedly indicate a good home victory. Surprisingly, when these foes last met at this location in July of last year, 12 of the previous 14 meetings between these teams ended in BTTS, including a 2:2 pick.

Recent form also adds some weight to the BTTS selection, with Fluminese seeing that outcome in each of their last four fixtures. Paulo Sao, for their part, have seen BTTS in three of their last four at this venue. The hosts also won all three of those BTTS contests.

With all of that in mind, we´re backing both sides to get on the scoresheet and given these sides´ respective home and away form, Paulo Sao may have enough quality to get another vital win under their belts.
