🗞️ Team News: Fluminense
Matheus Reis (Inflammation of ligaments in the knee) and Martinelli (Hamstring injury) will be missing for Fluminense gaffer Luis Zubeldía.
It looks as if Tricolor will possibly make use of the 4-2-3-1 formation for this one with Diego Sanchez, Francisco Salinas, Benjamin Gazzolo, Manuel Fernandez, Juan Cornejo, Salvador Cordero, Sebastian Galani, Cristian Zavala, Guido Vadala, Benjamin Chandia and Nicolas Johansen.
ℹ️ Team News: Bolívar
With a fully injury-free squad available to choose from, the Bolívar boss Flavio Robatto doesn’t have any fitness concerns to speak of ahead of this game.
It’s our belief that La Academia seem likely to utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting Neto, Edwar Lopez, Jan Angulo, Anderson Angulo, Cristian Arrieta, Juan Nieto, Cristian Trujillo, Adrian Parra, Juan Pablo Torres, Kelvin Florez and Jersson Gonzalez.
💭 Prediction
Our assessment is that Fluminense look set to be able to score a couple against Bolívar, who might well find it a difficult task scoring a goal of their own.
We’re tipping a 2-0 victory for Fluminense when the full-time whistle blows.
