Copa Libertadores 2012
I'm expecting quite a few goals tonight in Potosi. Flamengo is a team more than capable of scoring one, maybe even more goals, but are also more than capable of conceding. As a proof, in the last season of the Brazilian Serie A they had the second best attack, with 59 goals scored, but also one of the worst defense from the top 10 teams. So, if they can score so easily against other Brazilian teams, I don't see why they couldn't do it against a Bolivian team, that is weaker in defense. Real Potosi will surely try to take advantage from the high altitude, and will try to punish the Brazilian team in order for them to stand a chance in the return leg. They usually play offensive football, and today we shouldn't see a change, as a draw leaves them with practically no chance to qualify. Flamengo have prepared very well for this match, sending their full squad to Bolivia since more than a week, although they stayed in Sucre, where there is no altitude, so they should feel some heavy legs anyway. Ronaldinho and Deivid are expected to start as the main offensive weapons of the Brazilians, so the goals should come. GL!
over 2.5 goals @ 1.89, 5/10
Result: 2-1, WON
