Prediction

  • Fluminense host rivals Flamengo in what promises to be a thrilling inner Rio de Janeiro battle.
  • Fluminense have been in terrible form of late and have suffered three losses on the spin, putting manager Fernando Diniz under pressure. In midweek, they were comfortably beaten by Cruzeiro in a 2-0 loss on the road.
  • It’s a complete contrast for Flamengo who have won seven out of their last eight matches following their 2-1 victory over Bahia last time out thanks to a late winner from David Luiz. Rubro Negro currently sit top of the league and will be hoping to inflict further misery on their bitter rivals here.
