Corinthians vs Flamengo Prediction & Expert Tips

Corinthians vs Flamengo Preview

Corinthians’ five-game unbeaten run came to an end last weekend with a narrow 1-0 defeat to Sport Recife. Poor decision-making in front of goal was their undoing, as they managed to direct only three of their 19 attempts on target. In the end, Mathuesinho’s 49th-minute strike was enough to seal the win, leaving Corinthians unable to find an equalizer.

While lessons have surely been learned, the real test will be whether they can apply them when hosting Flamengo this weekend. Corinthians have failed to win any of their last six home league games, settling for four draws and suffering two defeats. A turnaround here would not only boost morale but also push them closer to securing a coveted Libertadores playoff spot.

Meanwhile, Flamengo would not be happy with their failure to pick up the maximum points last weekend but will console themselves with their unbeaten streak in the league that include seven wins and three draws. Felipe Luis’ men dominated Vasco on all metrics but just couldn’t convert their chances in front of goal.

The visitors will be eager to improve when they step onto the pitch this weekend. Flamengo remain unbeaten in their last four away matches (3W, 1D) and will be determined to stretch that run further, knowing Cruzeiro and Palmeiras are close behind and ready to pounce on any slip-up. Filipe Luís’ men currently sit top of the table with 51 points from 23 games, and the pressure to keep their lead intact is growing.

Corinthians vs Flamengo Prediction

Flamengo are favorites to win, as they remain unbeaten in their last eleven league matches. In contrast, Corinthians managed just three wins, alongside four draws and four defeats in the same period. Adding to that, the visitors are unbeaten in their last three meetings with the hosts (2W, 1D).

A high-scoring result is not anticipated, though. The last seven head-to-head encounters between these teams averaged just 1.8 goals per game, while Corinthians’ last five matches averaged only 1.4 goals per game.

Lastly, we back Giorgian De Arrascaeta to score anytime, as the Uruguayan international has been highly influential for Flamengo this season. He is currently the club’s top scorer in the league with 19 goals, and we expect him to add to that tally in this match.
