Vasco da Gama vs Internacional Prediction: The Cariocas can win with the support of their fans

In São Januário, Vasco da Gama and Internacional meet for a duel that promises to be very interesting. The Cariocas are back in the relegation zone after losing to Flamengo in the derby last weekend. The Gaúchos thrashed Santos 7-1 and now have 35 points, five more than Vasco, who occupies the top spot of the Z4. In case of victory, the home team can move out of the red zone and be just two points behind Inter.

Vasco da Gama

The Hill's Giant played a competent game at the Maracanã against rival Flamengo. Vasco's resistance lasted until the 76th minute when Gerson scored the match's only goal. Vasco showed against an opponent full of talented players that it has a strong and hard-fighting collective. The team has managed to recover in the table and maintain its chances of staying in the Série A thanks to these two qualities: collective organization and fighting spirit. We can also add the support of the Cruzmaltino fans, who have been exceptional. It's also thanks to them that Vasco hasn't lost at home since July.

Internacional

Nobody expected such a one-sided result between Inter and Santos. The Colorado hadn't won a Brasileirão match by more than one goal since May, so the 7-1 victory over the Fish surprised everyone. The result showed the team has much more quality than its 12th place suggests. Inter's long career in the Copa Libertadores has led to Coudet not deploying his best players in many Brasileirão matches, which is reflected in the side's standings. The Gaúchos will arrive confidently at the São Janário but won't have an easy game.

Expert Betting Tips

Vasco da Gama hasn't lost at home in six games, where it has enjoyed fantastic support from its loyal fans. On the other hand, Inter has not been doing well away from home. In their last seven games on the road, the Gaúchos haven't won a single one. I will use a Double Chance in favor of Vasco da Gama with a maximum of three goals.
