Fluminense v Internacional: Tricolor on a good run against Colorado | OneFootball

The duel between Fluminense and Internacional has been gaining importance in recent seasons. With memorable clashes in the Copa do Brasil and the Libertadores, the teams face each other once again this Saturday, this time for the Campeonato Brasileiro.

Head-to-head Record

The recent record of the matchup gives the advantage to the Carioca Tricolor. In the last 10 matches, Fluminense has claimed four victories over Colorado, who have won only twice. The other four games ended in a draw.

This period included two matches in the Libertadores semifinals in 2023, and two more in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil this season. In both, the team from Rio came out on top.

In the continental tournament, the teams drew 2-2 in the first leg, played at Maracanã. In the return leg, Flu beat Inter at Beira-Rio 2-1 to secure a spot in the final, which they would later win.

This season, in the Copa do Brasil, the scenario repeated itself. The team from Rio defeated the team from the South away from home, again by 2-1, and drew the second match 1-1 at Maracanã.

Standings

Despite the six-point difference between the teams in the Campeonato Brasileiro table, each club comes into the match with different goals. With 41 points in seventh place, Fluminense wants the win to stay in the fight for a Libertadores spot.

On the other hand, Internacional needs to earn points to avoid any risk of getting close to the relegation zone. Colorado is 14th with 35 points, just four ahead of Vitória, who are the first team in the relegation zone.
