Penarol (URU) vs Flamengo RJ (BRA) Prediction 9 May 2019

Penarol (URU) vs Flamengo RJ (BRA) Prediction 9 May 2019

Penarol takes on the visitors Flamengo RJ in round 6 of South American Copa Libertadores. The match will be played on Thursday, May 9th at Estadio Campeon del Siglo (Montevideo)

A splendid start of Flamengo, which was enhanced in the attack, suggested a championship in Carioca, although the lapping of mechanisms left questions to the new coach Abel Braga. However, the start in the CL group for Rubro-Negro was positive. Mengao coped with the Bolivian height and beat San Jose (0: 1). The away victory was followed by a home defeat to LDU Quito (3: 1), but after that, the Brazilians misfired with the heck Penarol (0: 1). The hammering victory over San Jose at Maracana (6: 1) allowed Flamengo to lead the group, but Braga became a hostage to his own strategy. Abel ignored the squad rotation, throwing all the forces to win the state title. Flamengo won in Carioca, but now even the fans of Rubro-Negro don’t need this victory. The users of social networks started boycotting the appointment of the specialist who failed the away match in Quito (2: 1) and didn’t manage to start successfully in Serie A. In Copa Libertadores, a draw will be enough for Flamengo to get out from the group because Brazilians and Uruguayans have 9 points each, but Mengao has better goal difference. LDU, which has 7 points, also claims progress from the group and must beat the Bolivians. It is unlikely that the result in the Ecuadorian capital, probably positive, will do Brazilians a favor. The win of the hosts in a parallel match in Quito will only motivate the Uruguayans, who will have to win in Montevideo.

So far, only Ecuadorian (2: 0) and Bolivian (3: 1) heights screwed over Aurinegros, but Penarol is very good at its native Estadio Campeon del Siglo. The team played with clean sheets with both LDU (1: 0) and San Jose (4: 0) in Montevideo. The champion of Clausura won the local River Plate (0: 2) in the last away match of Apertura, but the coach Lopez used a half reserve. Diego has no staff losses, but only the attacking line of the Uruguayans will be fresh in the match with the Brazilians. It is clear why. Flamengo held the bag in Porto Alegre, losing to Inter (2: 1), and Braga was delivered an ultimatum. In case of loss in Uruguay, the manager will be fired from Maracana. Now, Flamengo has changed its strategy, and a rotating lineup of Rubro-Negro played at Morumbi at the weekend. A draw with Sao Paulo (1: 1) should be considered an acceptable result, but, of course, the most numerous torcida of Mengao is now interested only in the result of the upcoming visit to Uruguay.

In the decisive match, Braga can’t count on the injured regular goalkeeper Alves, but Abel should also worry about the whole situation in the defense of the team. Being a well-known defensive coach, Braga admitted that Flamengo had already conceded 21 goals in 25 matches played by the team: in the state championship, in the CL group and in the starting matches of Serie A. Even Dorival Junior, who was dismissed last season, and even more so Barbieri could not “boast” of such figures. There is no doubt that Flamengo is technically superior to Penarol, but the Brazilians have the advantage only in the elegant and long line of attack. Beaten by Uruguayans at the crowded Maracana, Rubro-Negro must now obtain the result in the den of a beast driven into a corner. Gabigol and Henrique have to cope with the tension that has already impeded the Flamengo strikers in important matches, but there is no choice.

Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes + Over 2.5 goals scored
