Betting suggestion:

For this round and despite Cruzeiro playing at home and being considered the favorite, the team should enter the field with a mixed team, as its next game is the decisive duel against Flamengo for the Copa Libertadores. Fluminense will have total focus on the Brazilian Championship in this match. In this way, it is expected mainly a well defensive posture on the part of Cruzeiro, team that usually scores and suffers few goals in these conditions. Fluminense has not been as efficient in terms of goals scored. Thus, opting for a more closed match and with few goals on the final scoreboard should be the most appropriate.
