💭 Prediction

We believe that Fluminense have it within them to stay in control for long periods of time and should be able to convert a few of the chances that they create.

However, Chapecoense could well struggle to score themselves but we can see them scoring here.

We reckon that it will be a fairly comfortable 3-1 margin for Fluminense at the end of this one.
