Libertadores: Fluminense to face Olimpia to confirm spot in group stag
Brazil’s Fluminense takes the field against Olimpia (Paraguay) on Wednesday (Mar. 16), in the return match of the third round of CONMEBOL Libertadores Cup. The match will be held at 9:30 pm Brasília time at the Defensores del Chaco stadium, in Asunción.
After winning the first match 3-1 in Rio de Janeiro, Fluminense can lose by a one-goal difference to move on to the group stage. Coach Abel Braga is likely to keep the team that defeated the Paraguayans last week.
The only question mark tonight is striker Luiz Henrique, who sprained his ankle in the deciding match, but as he participated in the last training session without major incidents, he is likely to come on the starting team. Fluminense should kick off with Fábio, Nino, Felipe Melo, and David Braz; Calegari, André, Yago, and Cris Silva; Luiz Henrique, Willian Bigode, and Cano.
