Independiente Rivadavia vs Fluminense prediction
The first-leg of this CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores round of 16 tie finished goalless between Fluminense and Independiente Rivadavia at the Maracana in Rio de Janeiro.
Independiente Rivadavia won the Copa Argentina in 2025 – the club’s first major honour. The Argentinians have never made it to the knockout stages of this competition, naturally, and now have the chance of managing a huge scalp if they can defeat a Fluminense side that remain manager-less but they did manage a crucial 3-2 victory over Palmeiras at the weekend.
Fluminense will take confidence from that and, even with home advantage, it is not expected to be straightforward for Independiente Rivadavia and a low-scoring encounter seems a decent bet for this one at Estadio Malvinas Argentinas.
Independiente Rivadavia vs Fluminense tip: Under 2.5 goals
