Matchday 20 in the Brasileiro Serie A sees 14th-place Santos looking to continue their upturn in form when they host 17th-placed Vasco da Gama. Check out our prediction for this match between Peixe and Gigante da Colina!
After looking like they might be in for a relegation scrap in the first half of the season, Santos have since lifted themselves out of the drop zone with back-to-back wins.
Prodigal son Neymar scored a brace in Santos’ 3-1 home win over Juventude which they followed up with an excellent 2-1 away win over a strong Cruzeiro side. They’re now on a three-game unbeaten run in the Brazilian top flight, moving them five points clear of the bottom four.
Santos’ attack has been firing lately. With seven goals in their last three matches, they’ve accounted for more than a third of their seasonal total (20).
Vasco has been plagued by inconsistency this season. Manager Fernando Diniz hasn’t been able to replicate the kind of success he had at Fluminense with his side currently two points from safety in the standings.
While Vasco has been able to limit the defeats lately, they haven’t been able to convert on the full three points with three draws in their last four league fixtures. They’re last outing saw them draw 1-1 at home against Atletico MG, extending their Serie A winless run to five games.

Our Santos vs Vasco Da Gama Prediction
With the Santos attack looking to finally be back in motion, Peixe will be confident of extending their winning streak to three straight. They’ve shown flashes in the last few weeks, including beating league-leaders Flamengo as well as high-flying Cruzeiro.
While Vasco have made themselves tough to beat recently, they’re still really struggling when they play away from home. They’re giving up nearly 2.0 goals per away trip in the league and it’s tough to see them stopping an in-form Santos. Our Santos vs Vasco da Gama prediction: Santos wins the match.
