Fluminense vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting Tips (17 June)

Fluminense is one of the big stables in the Brazilian championship but also from South American football. This team proved it by winning the Copa Libertadores in 2023 but it must be content to compete in the Copa Sudamericana the equivalent of the Europa League this season when it finished at the top of her group. In the league, the Maracana residents are at the gates of the top 4 in the ranking, with only 4 lengths behind the leader, Flamengo, after 11 days. Unbeaten for almost a month, Fluminense players remain on 3 row successes obtained against Aparacidense 1-4 in the Cup, Once Caldas 2-0 in Copa Sudamericana, and Internacional 0-2 in the league. In front, Borussia Dortmund lived a sensations exercise.

Very badly embarked in the Bundesliga in the middle of winter, the German club has increased its level of play to snatch the 4th final place of its championship which will allow it to find the Champions League next year. A competition where the men of Niko Kovac appeared rather well by climbing in the 1/4 final before losing against FC Barcelona 5-3 on all 2 games. Practically irresistible at the end of the season, the BVB concluded its season with 5 willed success against Gladbach 3-2, Hoffenheim 2-3, Wolfsburg 4-0, Leverkusen 2-4 and the Holstein Kiel 3-0 .

The main headliner of this Fluminense team is none other than the former Brazilian international Thiago Silva (ex Milan AC, PSG, Chelsea) who, at 40, continues to chain the matches. We also find in this team the ex Bordeaux Otavio but this one is on the tile at the moment in the same way as its partners of the between Jeu Bernal and Canobbio (6 goals all competitions combined) and especially the attackers German Cano (14 goals) and Keno (5 goals). In their absence, the Colombians Jhon Arias (3 goals, 10 assists) and Kevin Serna (7 goals, 2 assists) will therefore be expected. German defender Schlotterbeck is missing. It should be the same for the fairly formidable Beier (8 goals, 7 Bundesliga passes) and the young American Campbell Cole.

On the other hand, the other usual tauliers are present in the image of the excellent Brandt (5 goals, 10 assists) and Gross (10 assists) and very good attackers Adeyemi (7 goals, 6 assists) and Bynoe-Gittens (8 goals, 3 passes). In advance, Niko Kovac should renew his confidence in the Guinean Serhou Guirassy who has scored 21 goals this year in the Bundesliga. In recent days, the young midfielder Jobe Bellingham, the little brother of a certain Jude spent at the club a few years ago, has signed up with the BVB from Sunderland.
