Fluminense hosts Gremio in round 12 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, July 18th at Maracanã (Rio de Janeiro)
Fluminense was among the leaders in the previous season, taking fifth place in Brasileirao. But now the Tricolors are not very stable, and June ended with an unsuccessful segment. Big Flu scored only two points in four matches. But it seems that Roger Machado's charges were able to quickly regain momentum. They started the new calendar month with two victories and one draw. Moreover, they defeated the reigning champion Flamengo at home. And it seems that this week Fluminense closed the issue of the winner in the pair of the Copa Libertadores 1/8 finals. Thanks to goals from Nene and Egidio at the start of the second half, Big Flu beat Cerro Porteno away (0-2).

Gremio also started in the playoffs of the Copa Libertadores. And the Immortal Tricolors did it successfully. In Quito, Leo scored from Jean Pyerre's pass already in the 19th minute, and the Brazilians were able to maintain this minimal advantage over LDU gained a 0-1 victory. The fans hope that the success in Ecuador will inspire the team to start climbing out of the deep hole in Serie A. So far, even the return of Luis Felipe Scolari has not particularly helped. Under his management, the grandee from Porto Alegre lost 0-2 to Palmeiras and did not score in the home match against Internacional. The situation is awful: the team from which someone was even expecting a fight for the title (with such cool players as Diego Sousa, Rafinha, Kannemann, Douglas Costa, and others) has gained only three points and has never won in nine matches. Now Gremio is the last in the standings.
In 2019, Fluminense managed to win both games against Gremio. But in general, the Immortal Tricolors look better in head-to-head matches. They proved this in the last championship, when they beat Big Flu both at home and in Rio with the same score of 1-0. Now Gremio may have started to come to life, but the opponent is more stable. We bet on Fluminense to win with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Fluminense to win with 0.0 handicap
