Chapecoense
DWLLLL 📉
Chapecoense will be hoping to bounce back here following a 2-0 Serie A loss in their previous game against Bahia.
In that match, Chapecoense had 35% possession and 10 shots on goal with 2 on target. On the other side, Bahia had 17 shots at goal with 6 on target. Nestor (12') and Román Gómez (34') scored for Bahia.
It has not been often in recent games where Chapecoense have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Chapecoense have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 9 goals during that time. That sort of trend won’t necessarily follow through into this next game, however.
Taking a look at their past results, Chapecoense:
- haven't won against Flamengo in their last 5 league games.
- are without a win at home for the past 8 league games. No joy for the home fans.
Flamengo
LDWLWW
Flamengo come into this encounter after a 3-0 Serie A win to beat Coritiba in their previous fixture.
In that match, Flamengo managed 62% possession and 21 attempts at goal with 9 of them on target. For Flamengo, the goals were scored by Lino (11', 70') and Pedro (60'). Coritiba got 10 attempts on goal with 2 on target.
The trend of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games featuring Flamengo has become fairly consistent in recent matches. Looking at their last 6 outings reveals that it’s occurred 5 times. In those clashes, opposing sides have hit a goal total of 6 and Flamengo have scored 8.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Flamengo:
- are undefeated by Chapecoense when they have played them away from home in the previous 2 matches in the league.
- are unbeaten in their previous 4 league matches away from home.

Team News: Chapecoense
We are thinking that Verdão may well opt for a 4-3-3 formation, beginning the first half with Matheus Aurélio, Marcos Vinicius, Doma, Rafael Thyere, Bruno Pacheco, Camilo, Bruno Matias, Giovanni Augusto, Sebastião Enio, Yannick Bolasie and Marcinho.
📰
Team News: Flamengo
There’s a good chance that Fla appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system, starting the game with Agustin Rossi, Emerson Royal, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Alex Sandro, Erick Pulgar, Jorginho, Luiz Araujo, G. de Arrascaeta, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
🧠
Prediction
We believe that Chapecoense must be fancied to breach the defence of this Flamengo lineup, although one goal might not be as many as they’ll concede.
We’re going for a very close game with a 1-2 winning score for Flamengo when all is said and done. Should be an interesting one.
