Prediction

  • This will be the fifth edition of the Flu-Fla derby in 2023. Flamengo have two wins, Fluminense have two wins and there's been one draw. The most recent meeting saw Flamengo enjoy a 2-0 victory in the Copa do Brasil. This will be the first Brasileirão meeting of the year.
  • After two matches without a victory, Fluminense returned to winning ways last time out with a 2-0 victory over Internacional at home. They'll be eager for revenge here having lost to Flamengo in the cup last time out. Flu know a victory here would see them leapfrog their rivals in the league table.
  • Flamengo earned a decent point in a 1-1 draw with Palmeiras in their last league outing. Then in midweek, they progressed to the Copa do Brasil semi-finals with a 4-1 aggregate win over Athletico Paranaense. The Rubro Negro will be eager for another victory in this duel.
