Away from home, Fluminense aim to end six-year drought against Grêmio | OneFootball

For the penultimate round of the Brasileirão, Grêmio hosts Fluminense this Tuesday, at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at the Arena. The Tricolor das Laranjeiras is trying to end a six-year-long taboo against the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

The last time Flu beat Grêmio on southern soil was in 2019, when the victory was decided by Yony González in stoppage time of the second half, ending 5-4 for the team from Rio. Since then, Fluminense has suffered five consecutive away defeats, four in the Brasileirão and one in the Libertadores.

The recent record as visitors also doesn’t help Fluminense. In the current edition of the Brasileirão, the team has only three wins, six draws, and nine losses away from Rio de Janeiro.

Fluminense's Situation

Fluminense is in sixth place in the Brasileirão, with 58 points, one less than Botafogo, who are seventh in the table. Already qualified for the Libertadores preliminary round, the Tricolor is now aiming for a direct spot in the continental competition.
