Oriente Petrolero vs Fluminense RJ - 27/05/2022
2116
In the early hours of Friday (CET), Oriente Petrolero and Fluminense go head-to-head in gameweek six of the Copa Sudamericana.
Oriente Petrolero
The Bolivian outfit has endured a poor campaign in Group H, losing all five of their games and conceding 13 goals. They haven’t been much better at the other end of the pitch either, as the home team has scored just twice in their group games this season.
Their poor results in the Copa Sudamericana have been mirrored in their recent general form as they head into this game on the back of three straight defeats in all competitions. They have also conceded at least two goals in each of the three defeats.
This season’s poor form in this competition is not a massive surprise, as the Bolivian team has won just two of their last 13 matches in the Copa Sudamericana. They have also lost seven of their last ten home games in the competition.
Fluminense
Unlike their hosts, Fluminense still has an outside chance of qualifying for the knockout rounds. However, the Brazilian outfit are two points behind group leaders Junior Barranquilla. The Colombian outfit only needs to get a point from their final game, as they also hold the superior goal difference.
Fluminense has a recent mixed record in the Copa Sudamericana, winning just once in their last four outings in the competition.
The visitor's recent away record in the Copa Sudamericana has not been great, as they have won just once in their last six away matches. However, three of their previous four away games in the competition have finished in draws.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Fluminense will claim a narrow victory in a low-scoring encounter, which may not be enough to see the Brazilian side make it to the competition's knockout stages.
