Independiente Rivadavia v Fluminense: team news, ref, where to watch | OneFootball

Fluminense face Independiente Rivadavia this Tuesday (18), at 7 p.m. (Brasília time), at Malvinas Argentinas Stadium in Mendoza, in the decisive second-leg clash of the Conmebol Libertadores 2026 round of 16. After a 0-0 draw at the Maracanã, Tricolor need to win away from home to secure a place in the quarterfinals. If there is another draw, qualification will be decided on penalties. The match marks Marcão’s second game in charge since Luis Zubeldía’s departure. The Argentine coach left the position after the draw in the first leg. Last Saturday, Fluminense returned to winning ways after eight matches by beating Palmeiras 3-2 in the Brazilian Championship.

The tendency is for Marcão to rely on the same core used against Verdão. The main change is in the defensive system, which should once again feature Ignácio and Thiago Silva. On the other hand, the coach will be without Savarino, Riquelme, and Igor Rabello, who picked up physical issues over the weekend.Probable lineupFábio; Guga, Ignácio, Thiago Silva and Renê; Hércules, Martinelli and Ganso; Canobbio, Soteldo and Hulk.Where to watchThe match will be broadcast live on ESPN, on pay TV, and on Disney+, via streaming.Officiating
