Junior

WWLLDL

Junior won’t want a repeat of their last result here following the 2-1 Copa Libertadores defeat in their last game at the hands of River Plate.

El Tiburón have not been the best at stopping their opponents lately, although they’ve also done enough to hit the back of the net themselves. Looking at their last 6 games, El Tiburón have been punished defensively in 6 of them as well as getting on the scoresheet in 5 of those games.

Fluminense

DWDWDW 📈

Fluminense go into this meeting after a 1-2 Copa Libertadores win vs Independiente Santa Fe in their previous game.

A run of resolute performances by the Fluminense defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 4 from their previous 6 fixtures in total. During the same time, their own attack force has managed to score 9. That sort of trend won’t necessarily be sustained into this next game, though.
