Predictions

Independiente Medellin (home)

  • Independiente Medellin have 4 points from 3 games in 3rd place.
  • Independiente Medellin won 1 and drew 1 of their last 2 home matches in the Copa Libertadores, conceding 0.50 goals per game.
  • Flamengo RJ enter this game as the continental heavyweights and current title holders, facing the difficult task of taking 3 points away from Independiente Medellin, a team who have yet to lose at home in the Copa Libertadores (W1, D1).
  • They are currently on an average run of 4 wins and 1 loss in their last 5 games in all competitions.
  • Botero’s Medellin play a defensive, low-to-medium tempo style of play, where they set up a compact, narrow defensive block.
  • They press selectively, not too hard, aiming to frustrate their opponents and then hit on the break.
  • It’s a similar story when they have the ball, where they’re compact, pragmatic, and look to make use of the space behind the opposition’s defence in the counter attack.

Flamengo RJ (away)

  • Flamengo RJ are unbeaten in their last 5 matches (W3, D2) and currently top Copa Libertadores, Group A (7pts from 3 games).
  • Flamengo RJ won 1 and drew 1 of their 2 away matches in the Copa Libertadores, also conceding 0.50 goals per game on average.
  • Flamengo’s boss Leonardo Jardim is a progressive coach who sets his teams up to be more dynamic, play at a higher tempo, and press their opponents.
  • Flamengo press intensely, try to win the ball back quickly and move forward with pace and verticality.
  • They’re certainly a more positive team, and they will try to build a head of steam and finish the game strong.
  • Flamengo’s recent unbeaten run has been built on a combination of control, particularly in the midfield and the momentum of their vertical attacks.
  • Pedro has been particularly on form, scoring 5 goals in Flamengo’s last 5 games.
  • Samuel Dias Lino has also impressed, providing 4 assists in the same period as Flamengo have scored 11 goals.

Independiente Medellin

  • Francisco Fydriszewski has scored 3 of Medellin’s last 4 goals in all competitions, and has been the danger man.
  • Francisco Chaverra leads the way for Medellin in Copa Libertadores scoring with 1 goal, but his team will need to be more clinical in the final third against a defensively solid Flamengo side who are scoring goals on the road (1.50 per match).
  • Alexis Serna has shown some creativity in his 3 games in the competition, providing 1 assist.

Flamengo RJ

  • Bruno Henrique leads the scoring for his side in this tournament with 2 goals in 3 games, and has been a real threat.
  • Pedro has been particularly on form, scoring 5 goals in Flamengo’s last 5 games.
  • Samuel Dias Lino has also impressed, providing 4 assists in the same period as Flamengo have scored 11 goals.

Betting Insights

  • Flamengo will be the favourites to take the win here at 2.11.
  • Over 2.5 goals is priced at 2.33.
  • Both Teams to Score - No is priced at 1.75.

Prediction

  • This game will be fascinating from a tactical perspective, as Flamengo will look to push the pace, while Medellin will try to slow the game down.
  • Flamengo will be looking to control the match, but they will have to be wary of Medellin’s press and Medellin's transition game on the counter.
  • Flamengo will be the favourites to take the win here at 2.11 and I think they can continue their unbeaten run in Group A by claiming all 3 points in this tough away game.
