Prediction

  • This is the first league edition of the Clássico da Rivalidade of the season. The sides met back in February in the Carioca State Championship, with Flamengo running out 1-0 winners.
  • Flamengo earned a decent point in a goalless draw with Champions Palmeiras last time out in the league, they currently sit second on seven points. In midweek, they suffered a 2-1 loss at the hands of Bolivar away from home.
  • It's been a solid week for Botafogo who first enjoyed a 5-1 thumping of Juventude at home, before a much-needed 3-1 win in the Copa Libertadores over Peruvian side Universitario. They would love to make it three wins on the spin in this duel.
