Editor's Prediction
Flamengo are considered slight favorites in the return leg and will aim to maintain their edge following a narrow 1-0 victory in the first match. Internacional will need to open up, but breaking through Flamengo's organized defense will be no easy task, especially given that Flamengo's matches in the Copa Libertadores tend to be low-scoring affairs-none of their last five games have seen more than two goals scored. In this scenario, betting on under 2.5 goals seems like a reasonable choice.
