Goias will host Fluminense at the Estadio da Serrinha on Wednesday night in the 18th game week of the Brasileiro Serie A.
Goias have had mixed results of late, picking up two wins, two losses and two draws in their last six games across competitions. They were knocked out by Atletico Goianiense in the last 16 of the Copa do Brazil last week, losing 3-0 on aggregate. Before that, they played out a goalless draw against struggling Juventude in their league clash at the weekend.
The Verdao sit 13th in the league table with 21 points from 17 games. They'll look to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways on Wednesday.
Fluminense, meanwhile, are in brilliant form and are seeking their first league title in a decade. They played out a 2-2 draw against Sao Paulo in their last game, with Manoel drawing his side level with a glancing header in the second half after the visitors had overturned an early deficit before the break.
The visitors have picked up 28 points from 17 games and sit fifth in the league table, just three points behind Atletico Mineiro at the top of the pile. They'll look to extend their good run this week and continue their title charge.
