Fluminense are currently at the bottom of the Serie A table, after winning just one of 13 league matches so far (D3, L9). They have no wins in their last seven games, and no goals scored in their last four matches.
With that in mind, it's no surprise that Internacional are the expected winners at 13/10 (2.30). Teams with these odds usually have a 43.5% probability of winning.

Furthermore, both teams have seen their fair share of low-scoring games, as seven of Internacional's last nine matches, and six of Fluminense's last seven games featured less than three goals.
Given that this was the case with three of Internacional's last four trips to this stadium, under 2.5 total goals has an appealing look at 11/20 (1.55). That one has a 64.5% chance of landing.

Player to watch: German Cano
To be fair, German Cano has struggled to find his scoring shoes in recent weeks. He has no goals in his last 11 appearances for Fluminense, with just one assist to his name in the last eight weeks. However, the Argentine player has a great track record against Internacional.
To put things into perspective, Fluminense scored six goals in their last four encounters with Internacional, and Cano was involved in five of those goals, scoring four times with one assist. He'll fancy his chances of getting back to scoring ways.
