The Strongest and Fluminense get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Copa Libertadores Group Stage fixture.
Fluminense have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
The Strongest and Fluminense should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Fluminense form and stats
Last season their Copa Libertadores adventure ended in the 3rd round.The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie A travels is 2 wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats.

Ahead of that, 0-0 at home vs Flamengo in the Copa do Brasil.
Fluminense have another fixture away in just three sleeps, a Serie A fixture versus Corinthians. A back-breaking itinerary for them!
