Stadium: Hernando Siles
23.08.2024, 03:30
The Brazilians won 2-0 in the first leg and will go to Bolivia to defend the advantage they gained at the Maracanã. The two teams had already met in the Copa Libertadores group stage, and Flamengo lost 2-1 in La Paz. The same result would be enough to progress to the quarter-finals, but Tite's team can♔'t give the Bolivians any hope, which will be dangerous.

The Academy drew 0-0 at home to San Antonio Bulo Bulo in round 12 of the Torneo Clausura. Bolívar didn't play with its best team with the Copa Libertadores match in mind. The Celeste still leads the Bolivian league, now three points ahead of rival The Strongest. The Bolivians will give everything they've got against Flamengo, taking advantage of being used to playing at the altitude of La Paz, ♒which often causes physical problems for the visitors.
Flamengo
The Scarlet-Black suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat in the derby with leader Botafogo and dropped to fourth place in the Brasileirão. The Cariocas are going through a difficult period, with poor results and many injuries. Pedro, Arrascaeta, Everton, Gabriel 𝔍Barbosa, Wesley and Viña won't be able to play against Bolívar. The recent matches were intense, with little rest between them, causing the team to break down. This game against Bolívar is crucial for Flamengo. The Copa Libertadores is the main objective for the club, which is beginning to see things become more complicated on the domestic front.
Expert Betting Tips
Flamengo has lost all three times it has played Bolívar away. The Brazilians could qualify with a defeat in La Paz, but it would have to be by the narrowest of margins. It's 🍃not a great moment for the Cariocas, but they know how important the game is for the club. It woul🍰d be a surprise to see Flamengo eliminated from the Copa Libertadores, but the team will probably struggle against Bolívar, like in April, in the group stage. I'm betting on a double chance for Bolívar with a maximum of three goals scored, although I think Flamengo will qualify for the quarter-finals.
