I remember when I had a 2nd interview (10yrs ago). The office was based ~200 miles from my home and after having a 1st interview at a hotel near me along with 10 other guys, I got the 2nd interview. I learnt afterwards (I got the job BTW) that by getting the 2nd interview I had 99.99% got the job already, it was just a formality, no one else from the 1st interviews got a 2nd!
IIRC all we did was chat and have a few laughs and then they showed me around head office. They then paid me £150 expenses for going to the 2nd interview, so at that time I thought at least if I hadn't got the job, I'd got that weekends beer money
Later that evening the guy phoned me up to tell me I had indeed got the job!
You would surely have to **** up big time in a 2nd interview to NOT get the job IMHO. Just be yourself and relax, and feel free to do what I did and have 2 double vodkas and a packet of mints before the interview!

EDIT: Forgot to add, have a chat with the secratary before going into the interview, had I done so she would have told me the job was already in the bag!

It certainly felt like it after that 2nd interview!
TBH I couldn't have given a to$$ if I'd got the job or not after being paid the expense
Did that job for 4 years untill I went self employed.
