It's going to be a tough match, very tough one, as much as Chelsea might be more favoured by many, Fluminense shouldn't be looked down on, I have strong support for Chelsea but this is a Brazilian team that went unbeaten in the group stage and still unbeaten till this point, along the way they encountered two big teams Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund and didn't concede defeat or a goal in any, that's a team that removed Inter Milan from the round of 16 so they're not weak.
Well, Chelsea too have been doing fine in the tournament and they have experienced players but they shouldn't see Fluminense like a Championship league team in England they should play like they're in a final and show Fluminense who's boss else they'll join the list of teams Fluminense kicked out of the tournament.
Chelsea will certainly put a serious focus on facing Fluminense in the semi-finals. Chelsea is the favorite in many betting rooms and Fluminense is getting special attention in this match. They are the underdog team that is expected to eliminate Chelsea amidst the uncertain prediction situation.
The good statistics that Fluminense has so far from the group stage to the quarter-finals make Fluminense not to be underestimated.
Indeed, in competition, Chelsea is more popular outside Europe, but Fluminense also has a good level of popularity even though only in Brazilian Serie A.
It's no wonder that some dare to take bigger odds on Fluminense.
