Fabinho scored one goal, dribled past the opponent 5 of 9 times and had 19 successful passes (of 23 total).
Heartbreak before that as CRB lost 0-2 at Gremio's place.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how CRB have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won eight times, drawn two and lost two.
