This Thursday, April 16, at 00:30, Fluminense host Independiente Rivadavia in a match still without a set stadium, for the second round of Group C of the Libertadores. The duel could decide the provisional first place and put pressure on the Rio de Janeiro side, which has yet to open the scoring in the competition.
O que está em jogo

Análise tática
The numbers point to a slight advantage for the home side, with a 44.6% chance of victory, while a draw has a 25.8% probability and an away win 29.6%. Fluminense should rely on the defensive discipline that helped them against Atlético, but needs to improve the offensive efficiency that failed against Flamengo. Independiente Rivadavia, used to imposing its rhythm, may look to quick attacks down the flanks, a strategy that has yielded positive results in recent matches.
