Stadium: Mario Filho (Maracana)

Referee: Líber Prudente (Uruguay)

Last Match: Real Potosi 2 - 2 Flamengo

Flamego (Brasil)

The team is qualified to next round, due to their good performance with four victories and one draw,has secure the first position of the group. This could make thing that could relax in this match,but considering the system that Conmebol uses to determinte the rivals in the next stage.

The system is position in a table the first places of the group and in another table the second places. The first place of the first places groups goes against the last place of the second places table, and so on. So in resume a better place in the table of the first groups grants a supposed "weaker" team in next stage.

The team have show more effective than anything helps, as they have won thee matches by one goal cushion, and just one by two goal cushion, meanwhile drawing the opener against Bamin Real Potosi (which they will encounter here).

In local tournament Carioca, the team won 4-1 to America/RJ to went to 7th position with 9 points out of six matches, which has the team six points from first place Botafogo. With this reulst the team goes to a streak of two consecutive victories. Counting Libertadores Cup the team reaches three consecutives matches winning.

Bamin Real Potosi (Bolivia)

The team arrives with posibilities to qualified to the next round,due to a great libertadores cup according to the team capabilities, the team open drawing with Flamengo which gave hopes to the team, then went to Parana and lost as in home Brazilian teams are strong. Then on the serie against U.A. Maracaibo took two draws one in home and one in away. And the victory that brings the team to life was the last home match against Parana, where the team take a good second half with two goals to get a 3-1 victory that has the team with chances.

The team have a strong and hard road match infront, the team is facing Flamengo on home, place where Brazilians teams tend to be more effective and offensive, and their only good result is victory but even there is Parana won by one more goal cushion than they, then Real Potosí will be eliminated. Now the desire scenario for the team is winning and that Parana don't win, or draw against Flamengo and that Parana lost or draw. Even defeat could represent qualification if Paraná lost against U.A. Maracaibo.

But reality is far from their desire scenario, and altought it seems imposible the team is going to do their best to take a good results that can make their dream came true.

Last local league match the team draw 1-1 to Jorge Wilstermann in away to take a point that send the team to six position with 11 points from seven matches, three points from first place Universitario Sucre, but Real Potosí has a match remaining which if winning will sends the team to first position. With the draw the team reaches three matches without defeat, the first two of them being victories. If taking in consideration last Libertadores Cup the streak grows to four unbeaten matches.

Match:

Flamengo will fight to end as the best first place and for that they can't afford a negative result here, even being in home is best for this team. Real Potosi is against a mission that is less probable to happen.

Prediction:

I consider that Flamengo will impose their quality and more because being home, Real Potosi will put their best performance but in home hardly some one beat brazilian teams. Considering that Real Potosi away defeats, (one in brazil) had been the most by two goals cushion, I consider value to relay on Flamengo -1 1/2AH 4/10.
