The second leg of the Copa Libertadores semi-finals is on the horizon, with Internacional and the Brazilian sensation Fluminense preparing to battle it out at the Estadio Beira-Rio Stadium. It's worth noting that three Brazilian teams have reached the final four of this competition, making it highly likely that a Brazilian team will claim the title. In their first-leg encounter, they played to a thrilling 2-2 draw. Both Internacional and Fluminense are currently in excellent form, setting the stage for what promises to be an exceptionally entertaining match on Thursday. Here are some carefully considered tips for the upcoming game.

Internacional de Porto Alegre's brief moment of victory in the league was quickly overshadowed by their recent loss to Atletico MG in their most recent league outing. It's safe to assume that their focus was predominantly on the Copa Libertadores return leg against Fluminense, which might have contributed to their league defeat. Currently, they occupy the 14th position in the league table, with one win, two losses, and two draws in their last five games across all competitions.

The first-leg encounter against Fluminense ended in an exciting 2-2 draw, characterized by a flurry of offensive attacks from both sides. As they gear up to face Fluminense in the return leg of the Copa Libertadores semi-finals, we can expect another highly offensive game, and Internacional will be aiming for a favorable outcome.

Fluminense is currently occupying a respectable 6th position in the Brasileiro Serie A standings, boasting two victories in their last five matches across all competitions. However, their recent league performance left much to be desired, as they suffered a surprising and heavy 3-0 defeat to Cuiaba. This unexpected loss can perhaps be attributed to Fluminense's focus on the upcoming return leg of the Copa Libertadores against Internacional.

In the Copa Libertadores journey, Fluminense has achieved remarkable feats, progressing to the semi-finals. They advanced beyond the quarter-finals by convincingly defeating Olimpia in both legs of the game, securing a 5-1 score aggregate. The first leg against Internacional ended in an exciting 2-2 draw, with both teams aggressively vying for victory. We can expect a similar high-intensity clash on Thursday.

A critical look at their last 11 encounters produced 5 victories for Fluminense, 5 victories for Internacional, and a draw.
