Maracanã
Maracanã won’t want a repeat of their last result here following a 1-0 Copa do Brasil defeat last time out to Internacional.
Internacional
WWLLLW
Internacional will go into this encounter after a 0-2 Copa Libertadores win against Nacional de Football in their previous outing.
In that match, Internacional managed 49% possession and 11 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. The scorer for Internacional was Braian Aguirre (90'). Nacional had 16 attempts at goal with 3 on target.
Demonstrating their bias toward productive encounters, the back of the net has been hit 21 times in the previous six games in which Internacional have played, making it an average of 3.5 goals for each clash. Opposition teams have got 12 of this grand total. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be sustained into this next game, of course.

💭
Prediction
Our thinking is that Internacional are likely to have the majority of the possession and should turn some of their chances into goals.
Conversely, Maracanã won’t find it easy finding the net themselves but we do see them pulling one back during this clash, too.
We reckon that it will be a fairly comfortable 1-3 margin for Internacional at the end of this one.
