Gremio are in a position to advance in the tournament, but in order to reach the first place, they will be looking for a convincing victory against the last team in the group. In their previous match, they ended in a 1-1 draw with Godoy Cruz, and before that they won 2-1 against Sportivo Luqueno in the first match between the two teams. Furthermore, the hosts are undefeated in their last six home matches in all competitions - a stable foundation to build upon.
Poor form for LuquenoThe guests from Luqueno no longer have a chance to qualify and it seems that their form reflects this situation. They drew 1-1 against Atletico Grau in the previous round, and before that they suffered three consecutive losses. In addition, the Paraguayan team is on a streak of nine consecutive away matches without a win in all tournaments - a worrying statistic considering their visit to Porto Alegre.
Prediction: Gremio -1.5Gremio has already defeated this opponent once as an away team, and considering the upcoming direct battle for the first place in the group, they will likely aim to improve their goal difference. Luqueno's poor results away from home further tilt the scales towards a convincing victory for the Brazilian team.
