Santos banking on unbeaten run at Vila to beat Internacional | OneFootball

This Wednesday, Santos hosts Internacional for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. Despite fluctuating throughout the season, the Alvinegro Praiano is betting on one trump card to beat Colorado: the team has not lost at home this year.

In the seven matches they have played as hosts, Santos has won three and drawn four. Although their performance rate stands at 61.9%, which is low compared to other seasons for the team, the unbeaten record at Vila Belmiro is one of the Alvinegro Praiano's main assets.

Another aspect that Santos can rely on for the clash with Internacional is the bad phase of the team from Rio Grande do Sul. At the bottom of the Brasileirão, with only two points, Colorado has not won away from home in three matches — and five games overall.

Victory is non-negotiable for Santos. With an inconsistent season, coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda heads into the match under pressure, and the Alvinegro Praiano needs to get back to winning ways in the Brasileirão to move away from the relegation zone.

Despite not losing at Vila Belmiro this season, Santos has been inconsistent. Eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Campeonato Paulista, the team has also underperformed in the Brasileirão and currently sits in 13th place, with six points — just three more than Botafogo, who are 17th and the first team in the relegation zone.
