Betting Tip
Fluminense are gradually finding their game again after a difficult start to the season. As is well known, Brazilian teams neither like nor know how to play defensively, and Luis Zubeldia's men are no exception. From the first minutes they will take control of the ball and put constant pressure on the opposition goal (they have averaged 13.8 shots over their last four
matches).
A key role in this will be played by the attacking quartet of Kennedy, Canobbio, Savarino and Acosta. They will constantly interchange positions and cause chaos around the opposition penalty area. The last of them is particularly dangerous: after returning from the treatment room he has recorded a goal and an assist in each of his last two matches, and his absence was one of the main reasons for the difficult start to the season.
Bolivar also do not mind playing open football, so we should expect constant counter-attacks from the visitors, driven by powerful double flanks. This will work especially well given the absence of Fluminense holding midfielder Martinelli. We believe that in this situation it makes sense to back Over 2.5 goals, all the more so as this bet often lands with these teams (for Flu in four of their seven matches, and for the Bolivian club in four of eight).
Prediction: Over 2.5 goals
