Fluminense vs PlatensePrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

CONMEBOL Libertadores quarter-final between Fluminense and Platense, two clubs that have never met in a competitive fixture: the head-to-head list is empty and the comparison has to be built on recent numbers alone. The competition average is 2.33 goals per game. The group run Fluminense finished second in Group C on 8 points from six matches, with two wins, two draws and two defeats and a record of 7 goals scored and 7 conceded. Their home return reads two wins and one defeat with 6 goals scored and 4 conceded, while the three away trips produced two draws and one defeat with a single goal scored and 3 conceded. Platense came second in Group E on 10 points, with three wins, one draw and two defeats, 8 goals scored and 7 conceded. Their profile is the mirror image: away from home they picked up two wins and one defeat with 5 goals scored and 3 conceded, while their three home games brought one win, one draw and one defeat with 3 scored and 4 conceded. Recent outings Fluminense arrive from a 3-3 away at Atletico Paranaense, preceded by a 2-1 home win over Remo and a 1-1 away at Independ. Rivadavia; further back sit a 3-2 home win over Palmeiras and a goalless home draw, again with Independ. Rivadavia. Across five matches they have scored 9 goals and conceded 7, and lost none of the five. Platense lost 0-1 away at Defensa Y Justicia in their latest match, after a 1-1 at home with Instituto Cordoba and a 2-1 away at Barracas Central; the picture is completed by a goalless draw at Coquimbo Unido and a 1-1 at home with Boca Juniors. Four goals scored in five games, with three draws in between. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
