Fluminense take on the visitors Sao Paulo in the round 33 match of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Wednesday, November 22nd at Maracanã (Rio de Janeiro).
Fluminense are not expected to achieve anything remarkable in the current Brazil Serie A campaign. The club, which finished third last season, is clearly lagging behind even the top 6 now. The gap has already reached ten points, and it's no longer feasible to make up for such a deficit. However, they compensated for this with a triumph in the Copa Libertadores. Brazilians, who previously reached the final only once a decade and a half ago, now have claimed the title. Justifiably, they eliminated all their opponents in the playoffs, including a penalty shootout, and won the decisive match 2-1 against Boca Juniors.

"The Three-Colored" have finally acquired a trophy as well. Sao Paulo are a popular and successful club, even by Brazilian standards. However, recent years have been unremarkable for the grand club. After winning the Copa Sudamericana in 2012, they experienced a decade of success only at the state level—a significant achievement in the country, but they always expect more. Overall, the current season did not promise breakthroughs: in Serie A, the "tricolor" lingered at the bottom of the top 10, and they were quickly eliminated from the Copa Sudamericana. However, this time, they managed to secure the cup. In the final, defeating Flamengo away and drawing the home leg 1-1, the team finally lifted the trophy.
Fluminense have not lost four times in a row. However, in the summer, Sao Paulo finally managed to press the opponent at home, winning 1-0. Essentially, both clubs are not playing but finishing the season. Considering this, the option of "total under 2.5 goals" seems appropriate.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
