Sadly for them, Deportivo Tachira may well find it beyond them to hit the back of the net even once against a Flamengo side who have the quality to boss every aspect of the game, should it unfold as we are expecting it to.
We’re tipping a very comprehensive 4-0 belting with possibly even more for Flamengo after 90 minutes.
