Bolivar and Fluminense meet in Group C of the Copa Libertadores, with both sides needing points to sharpen their position in the table as the group stage progresses.

Bolivar have been inconsistent in recent weeks. A stunning 6-0 win over Real Tomayapo at the weekend showed their attacking capacity, but that result came sandwiched between a home defeat to Independiente Petrolero and a Copa Libertadores loss to Independiente Rivadavia. The Bolivian champions have not been easy to read.

Fluminense arrive carrying their own complications. The Rio de Janeiro club sit fourth in Group C and have lost two of their last five matches, including a 2-1 defeat to Independiente Rivadavia in their most recent Libertadores outing. Their Serie A form has been more encouraging, with back-to-back wins over Santos and Chapecoense providing some momentum.

This fixture matters for both clubs. Bolivar are third in the group and Fluminense fourth, meaning neither side can afford to drop points if they want to keep their progression in their own hands.

Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch Bolivar vs Fluminense, including TV channel listings, live stream options, and kick-off time.

Bolivar go into this match on a mixed run of results. Across their last five games they have won twice, drawn once, and lost twice, scoring ten goals but conceding four. The 6-0 demolition of Real Tomayapo was their standout result, though a 1-2 home defeat to Independiente Petrolero just days earlier underlined the inconsistency that has defined their recent form. In the Libertadores specifically, they drew 1-1 with Deportivo La Guaira before losing 1-0 to Independiente Rivadavia.

Fluminense have picked up two wins, one draw, and two defeats in their last five outings. They beat Santos 3-2 away from home and followed that with a 2-1 victory over Chapecoense, but a goalless draw against Operario Ferroviario in cup competition and back-to-back defeats to Independiente Rivadavia and Flamengo have kept their form from building real consistency. They have scored eight goals across those five matches while conceding six.

  • Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
