Internacional vs Vasco da Gama Predictions

• Internacional have lost only one of their last 17 home league games
• Vasco De Gama have failed to win any of their last four away games
• Internacional have kept clean sheets in each of their last two home league wins

Struggling visitors appear to be on the decline

Vasco da Gama have made a low-key return to the Brazilian top-flight, winning only one of their opening nine games with just Coritiba having made a worse start in Serie A.

Vasco were impressive winners at highflying Atletico Mineiro in their opening away game, but have flattered to deceive ever since and have taken only two points from their subsequent four road trips.

That includes a draw at rock-bottom Coritiba while their most recent away games have seen them convincingly beaten 4-2 at Sao Paulo and 2-0 at Fortaleza.

And that doesn’t bode well for their visit to Internacional, who are five points better off having won three and drawn two of their opening nine games.

Home is where the heart is for Internacional

But that doesn’t tell the full story as Internacional have been hopeless away yet extremely efficient in front of their own supporters.

Mano Menezes’s men have won three of their opening four home games, which includes an impressive 2-1 victory over Flamengo.

It is worth remembering that Internacional also went unbeaten in their final 13 home league games last term, winning 11 of those outings which includes accounting champions Palmeiras.

With that in mind, they strongly recommended favourites and correct-score punters should side with them to prevail 2-0.

Not only did they win their last home games against Bahia by that scoreline, but their last two meetings with Vasco De Gama have seen them record that margin of victory.
