Flamengo to Win
After ending last season without a trophy, Flamengo is certainly motivated to correct that in this season. And they did start Copa Libertadores in great rhythm, with two wins in the first two games.
Meanwhile, Universidad Catolica beat Sporting Cristal and lost to Talleres de Cordoba. However, the team has been in poor form for a while now with just one win in the last six games in their domestic championship. So, we can see Flamengo taking three points here.
Universidad Catolica and Flamengo to Draw at Half Time
While we expect Flamengo to win this game, we can see the two teams being tied at half time. After all, Universidad Catolica did win their first game at home in the group, so this should be a close game.
In addition to this, the last two head-to-head meetings between Universidad Catolica and Flamengo have been tied at half time, so we can see that happening again.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
Two of the four games played by Universidad Catolica and Flamengo in the first two rounds of Copa Libertadores have gone under 2.5 total goals and we can see that being the case in their upcoming duel.
Furthermore, Universidad Catolica went under 2.5 total goals in four of their last six games in their domestic league, while the same thing happened in three of four Flamengo matches in Serie A so far.
Universidad Catolica vs Flamengo preview: Can the home team resist Flamengo?
Universidad Catolica
In the first two rounds of Copa Libertadores, Unversidad Catolica has one win and one loss. Still, they are behind both Flamengo and Talleres de Cordoba with two wins each, but there’s plenty of time left for Unversidad to secure one of the top two spots. Meanwhile, the team is in very poor form in their domestic championship with four losses in the last six games.
Flamengo
Last year’s finalists of Copa Libertadores started the new season in the competition well, with a couple of wins. So, Flamengo is already in great position when it comes to progressing to the next round after just two games. On the other hand, Flamengo has just one win in the first four games of Brazilian Serie A.
