Fluminense vs Remo

Fluminense face Remo in round 24 of the 2026 Brazilian Serie A on Saturday 22 August, with the hosts looking to cement their top-four position and the visitors desperate for points in the relegation battle. The two sides arrive in contrasting form, and the stakes at opposite ends of the table could scarcely be higher as the campaign enters its decisive phase.

Fluminense Form Guide

Fluminense sit fourth with 38 points from 23 matches, their strong home record a key factor in their push for a Copa Libertadores berth. At their own ground they have claimed eight wins, three draws and suffered just one defeat all season, scoring 34 goals in the process. A thrilling 3-2 victory over Palmeiras in their last outing underlined their attacking threat, though 28 goals conceded suggests there is still defensive work to be done.

Remo’s Relegation Fight

Remo travel in 18th place on 23 points from the same number of games, outside the drop zone only on goal difference. Their campaign has been built on resilience rather than wins — five victories and eight draws tell the story of a side that has found it hard to turn tight contests into three-point hauls. A 1-1 draw at Internacional in their most recent fixture did little to ease the pressure, leaving Remo still searching for the consistency needed to climb clear of danger. They have conceded 37 goals, the leakiest defence among sides immediately around them.

Key Battle: Fluminense’s Attack vs Remo’s Fragile Defence

Fluminense’s front line will relish the chance to test a Remo rearguard that has shipped more than 1.6 goals per game. The home side’s ability to create chances from open play and set-pieces could expose the visitors’ lack of clean sheets — Remo have managed only a handful of shutouts all season. If Fluminense hit their rhythm early, Remo could find themselves under sustained pressure, forcing a side short of confidence to chase the game.
