Fluminense vs Independiente Rivadavia prediction
2023 Copa Libertadores champions Fluminense are the clear favourites in this two-legged tie although head coach Luis Zubeldia will be concerned by their seven-game winless streak coming into this contest, with their last victory coming back in May in the group stage of this very competition.
They take on an Independiente Rivadavia side who impressively topped their group to reach the round of 16. The 2025 Copa Argentina champions will feel they have little to lose here against their more illustrious opponents, but the likelihood is they will struggle in this first leg in Brazil.
Fluminense have been enduring a tough run but they should be fancied to beat their opponents to nil in this one.
